I think I may have swapped over to the summer(all season) wheels a little too soon..

Now that it's finally dry out and I can work in the garage without laying in puddles... I finished the centre piece of my custom diffuser! For now enjoy this iPhone photo, I'll upload some real ones when I refinish the wheels this weekend..

Jealous of your snow :) 

More pics of the diffuser!  Even if they're not real iPhone pictures!

Haha thats about the only place there is snow left, our driveway hardly sees direct sunlight! Its super hard to get it to show up in pictures on the white! I'll get some better ones with my DSLR soon.

Re: Tremor`s 04 FXT - Custom Rear Diffuser & Wheels Refinished!

Took some time out of my homework/study schedule today to refinish the wheels. When I bought them all but one were rashed, and I really wasn't a fan of the white on white. I went with a red pearl that comes on Toyota's.
I love the way they turned out. Now if its nice this weekend I'll go out and shoot some better shots of the wheels and diffuser though I would really like to wait until my front lip shows up next week  ::)

It's really hard to capture that color with a phone so I'll definitely have to get better pictures. They are darker than that appear.

Hopefully it's a little easier to tell in these pictures. The car needs a good wash(gave her a quick hooker bath) and yes I know I have a tail light out  ::)

My front lip should be here between the 4th and 11th and then I'm done for a bit!

Front lip will be nice. A rear wing would really complete the look. How tall is that garage? :o

Thanks for the extra pics

There will be a front lip, front splitter, skirt extensions and a rear wing in my future. How soon I'm not sure, too much money spent lately haha. Pretty sure that's a 12 foot ceiling? If It were my house we'd have a lift  ;D

Re: Tremor`s 04 FXT - Importology Front Lip Installed!

Finally received my replacement lip after having one mailed to me broken.. I'm cross posting this from the latest photo thread because its all I have for pictures of my new front end setup.

Very nice. I've been on the fence about getting one for awhile but I'm not sure how much it will effect ground clearance.

Well, I'm on WRX Struts with Tein springs. With just the importology lip I could get in and out of my driveway just fine with no issues, after adding that STi V-Limited lip I need to take a pretty decent angle on entrance and exit but I haven't noticed it hitting anything otherwise.

Comparing Importology to stock it really isn't that big of a clearance difference, it just brings the front edge of the bumper down to the same level as the back edge.

The end of an era. Sold the car today with 1895xx miles on it to a nice young guy from Regina. Hopefully he takes car of it. I likely will not be back in a Subaru ever again, but for sure not for a long time. Just going to drive something cheap cheap until I'm done University. It's been fun WSC!
