Wow, awesome start to a build thread.  Car looks great.

[Perfect Dark]

I am usually not much of an 08+ sedan fan but yours looks really good!  Be sure to update us with the new plots once the turbo swap is done.

[wingless]

That's looking great.... I like the cf scoop.... it's different for sure.

[Unoriginalusername]

I really like the carbon fiber hood scoop where did u get it?

[GrantC]

Is that actuator still good?

Have you hooked it up to a compressor to see what PSI it opens or if it does at all? 

[T-Dubbs]

i love the way your car looks!

The diffuser cover is being made in the USA for treble racing and the mold is just about finished been playing the waiting game not my favorate game but ya want new stuff sometimes it takes a while.It will cover the black section you can see in the above photo in carbon fiber

Wife ordered me the spoiler for hoho yes score .

Thanks for your input . Deon m

Looking good, as long as the turbo and re-tune goes well, I would say the next mod should be some nice brakes to round out the package!

[YvanF]

Looking good. Sharp looking 08 for sure!

Thanks for all the pics!

I'm loving the pics with the new rims. That is a sexy beast.

I have family out in PEI.. I've wanted to drive down there for a while, but I don't have the time... It's a long drive.

Those are not his car, just pictures of the sideskirts he ordered on a different car. That's what I picked up on anyways I could be wrong lol. It has a FMIC and unpainted grill.

Nice car, definitely one of the sharper 08+ sedans I have seen.

Your correct the car with sideskirts is a guy off 3gwrx in California .

Thanks I have a front  mount also he has just cut out the front grill and added a grill craft grill on my list of to do after the main  things are done.

[~Touge/Wangan-]

yup, i think i have decided....

selling my bugeye for an 2008+ WRX....

that looks amazing....

[AdamMc]

are you going to be painting the lip/skirts when you have them all together?  Or was your plan to leave them black?

[2008impreza2.5i]

nice looking, where did you get the 11 spoiler? and at what cost? im looking to do the same for my red 09 wrx

[lynx440]

Sorry if you mentioned this...i tried not to skim the thread too much, but are you using both a FMIC and a TMIC??  If so, that's pretty cool!

[Munky]

Judging by the pipe work, Just front mount.

Very nice car.  Keep up the good work.

Thanks a lot I am trying hard to make it a sweet ride just about done to the level I am looking for come spring I hope to be one of the best looking 08 sedans rolling.
You will love the new interior and room.

Black I like the contrast I have seen lips body color and it's just too much of the same color I love how sharp the black looks on blue .

Subaru genuine parts 253us plus shipping plus unpainted so I ya have a factory spoiler you will need to get the 14 holes filled or get a replacement trunk with no spoiler. So I bought a new cf for 500us shipped that way no filling of trunk and less painting parts so it evens out unless ya can paint yourself or trade for a non spoiler trunk .

Sorry if you mentioned this...i tried not to skim the thread too much, but are you using both a FMIC and a TMIC??  If so, that's pretty cool!

Na not that crazy I went from a stock tmic to a Perrin tmic then got the racerx fmic because you keep the front bumper beam and can use any intake .

Thanks  for input and comments keep it comming .

[Way-do]

Everyone is like "Dude your car is ill!"  And I'm all like "That is a really nice floor jack, how high does that thing lift?"
