Subaru WRX STi upgrade...(large pics)

Staring at the car for a while, i realzed the back looked like it was jacked up in the air. Wasting no time, i ran up to my lab and busted out the dremel. Cut, cut, cut i did and soon it dropped like a stone. Now its lookin' hot. I even cut off the stock muffler, gave it a pacheroo with some polyester putty, then threw on MY OWN Carbon Fibre exhaust. Re-worked the pipes with some q-tip handles (these work great for custom piping for they are exact size and they bend easy). Enjoy.

Thats looks hot
Did the reflective stickers for the tail lights come precut to fit the light or was it just the plain reflective sticker?

That looks really nice. Hmmm, methinks I should take Subaru into "the lab" for some reconstruction.

It seems that the blue should be more metallic??? Other than that, it is very nice. Good job.

Naw, its not meant to resemble the stock paint. Its custom paint.

Don't mean to rain on your parade, but am I the only one who finds those exhausts a little overboard? I mean, just look at that thing! If you blew it up to 1:1 scale, you could probably stash a pair of Nikes and a few baseballs in there.

I dun really like the Wheels... but then again its ure model and each and everyone have there own taste.... my friend has the Fujimi Advan RG's and they look very good on the model...except for the fact that Fujimi makes 17'' Wheels looks like they are 12''.
Anyways... you have a very different Impreza and i think it would look better with the Prodrive Spoiler!.... but overall i like the colour and everything... just one thing
Is that real Carbon Fibre on the Exhaust?
