It's been a while....can't believe you bought some TE's....the specs just don't portray how awesome those wheels are...have to be a wider wheel with some concavity and maybe a size smaller in diameter ...when's the next get together?

Whoah...what's up Matt?
I thought you had figured out keeping the white STi? I'm guessing from your avatar you ended up getting that other one you were looking at?

Congrats, man!

I'm not sure when the next meet will be. Yeah, I agree on the specs. I'll be selling them.

Ahhhhh! So you're the one who bought it! My cousin was itching to go cross country to pick it up but it literally sold the day he called for it. He just picked up a brand new 2015 STI to make up for it, but he still says that he wishes he could've got that built and swapped RS. Enjoy that car man, it's something special.

^What you do is my dream with that car. Not one of the best cars out there, it is the only best car out there. Nothing else.
I'm jealous
Edit: Oh are you the white STI from the meet last Summer?
Nice choice

Car is looking good. Glad to see the OEMs back on there.

BTW, in looking at your car and how nice they already look i was looking at what else i would do. There is really nothing else but you know how this is neverending so i'll ask about fog lights. I would imagine you've already though about it and you probably even spoke about it on here but i dont have the patience to look back thur such a long thread. Might be a good, clean, OEM-looking mod to do. Modified tails as well but i know you of all people have already thought about that.

Yes sir...actually I considered both. I even considered headlight opening and removing amber but I actually really like how it looks. So far, to make it look nicer but still OEM I've only added the strakes and the oem rep spoiler. Tails, are pretty serious to open up and I'm not sure I'd want to cut them open, about fogs. The only real option is these LED inserts but I despise how they look when off. I've seen people black them out, but I still am not sold on it...we'll see.

Either way, I appreciate you taking the time to make suggestions.

I think yours are the ones I saw that had been blacked out?!?

I have the Philips 85122+ low beam bulbs, I'm afraid the color difference will be too stark.

I'll text you a pic. Yes there is a noticeable color difference but I have led bulbs for the park lights so they match. I think if I change my headlight bulbs to 6000k they'll match

Yeah, that's my fear, I'm trying to stay away from that 6K color hue on the car overall. Even my license LED look very white in comparison. And I LOVE the slightly yellowish hue of the 85122 prus prus
