mmm deff not going 22" bosco(it is after all still a work car) so lowered springs will have to do.
ricey or not that front end of the 3.6(pictured) does at least add to a more agro stance, or least something a little diffrent.
The moldings are a seperate peice that fit over the top of the excisting b/bar and spot light. We do have them here to suit the aus front bumper(was shown one at docklands)
But i do agree with sym the led's do look as if its been added as a after thought though, Been thinking of buying the seperate plastic mold of import and using mesh or carbon firbe and led to get a more integrated look.Thats if i could make up a backing bracket/and depending how it would look when finished.

ok time for a update, been super busy work wise and waiting in goodies to arrive from import
couple of small things now added
new mats full set including rear (better quality than the standard subaru issue
Image

colour molded door molds, undecided on these yet(at least they may stop the idiots from marking my doors)they may stay or go

Image

Also booked in with matt (kido) friday for tunning, rocked up to find a happy friendly bloke who knows his stuff.As others have said before huge improvement, smoother throttle response, fly by wire delay gone,turbo spool is just instant, car feels strong eager under so little throttle respronse! im a happy man deff grin factor here.As for the gearbox issue so far when hot gear change is much better, downshift isnt a struggle anymore.
My only problem is when box is cold gear change still is tough and awkward, so if matt has time i will be discussing this with him today to see if any adjustments can be made.
Over all top marks to matt and kido

Glad you are (as everyone else is) happy with your Kido tune. I also like the colour-coded door moulds. Improvement IMO. :good:
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!

Its just the patterned color scheme for me. All black/charcoal/dark grey wouldve been better imo.

You know those are the most popular stock replacement mats in J...
They do checkers too :)

But I'd consider stepping up to Clazzio 3D mats via IM ftw.

The Post face lifted Gen 5 you posted, those addtional lips wont fit on the pre face ones (Your Gen 5). Totally different front bar, you'll need a complete new bar if you wanted those DRLs and lip extensions installed.
