Hey all,

2005 2.5i, pretty boring, not worth trying to get power gains so i wanted to make it look nice/fun to drive at least as a daily.
Here's how it looked when I got it in 2012.



Current mods:
- BC BR coilovers
- All guards rolled
- XXR 527's 18x8.75 +35 with 225/40/18 tyres
- wrx 4 pots
- front slotted rotors
- 35% tint all around
- Tinted taillights
- DIY mesh grille
- Cobb 5mt short shifter
- Dashboard camera
- Number plate lift
- Custom plates
- Front lip
- DIY side skirt extensions
- 11-14 wrx rear aprons

Planned (aka maybe since i do plan to upgrade):
- whiteline swaybars F&R with appropriate bushings and end links
- exhaust or just mufflers (PM me please if you plan to sell)
- HIDs eventually
- Different wheels or pump guards to fit 235/40.
- Bootwing delete or boot swap
- Respray whatever i can

Here's a few recent pics.

Looks good as man, good to see more modded 2.5is on here.
Maybe add a lip to that mods list?

Just keep in mind that bucket seats aren't a legal swap in these due to the seat airbags...

Thanks kody. Yeah i think i listed that haha. it's definitely next and very soon
Hmmm i didn't know, thanks for that. I suppose seats are the least of my concerns anyway I'm aiming for suspension parts after the lip

Quick update, nothing fancy:

- 35% tint all around
- DIY mesh grille
- Ebay front lip
- Number plate lift




Custom plates on its way.

October 2014 update:

- COBB 5mt shoft shifter
- Dashboard camera finally in after modding the mount a little.
- Custom plates, prefered black on white than white or silver on black.

Big fan of the Deltaspeed lip kit but i felt like it didnt suit preface unless i had a jdm front bar or something.
So i thought i'd try a simpler look, found a lot of people on legacygt.com use a lot of universal lips and some i found some using 11-14 wrx cs style sides and rears.
Since the sides of libs are longer than 11-14 wrx i would have needed to modify them and i didnt wana have to pay $300+ just to hack them up.
Instead i decided to try my hand in fabricating some simple side skirt extensions from fibreglass and just plastidipped to see how it would look.
Then ordered wrx rears for cheap.

Here's a few pics, testing them on for a bit until i decide if they stay on. I don't mind the rears being little short but i do want to add some bits so it connects to the rear bar exhaust arches more.

What do you guys think?

Looks sick.

Love the DIY.

Looks great!!!
for the DIY.

Thanks guys! I'll play around with it and see if i can get it to look more uniform with the rest of the lip bits.

Next thing i really want to learn to do .. welding ..

I love you wheels, stance and how clean your car is.
You did a rad job man.

If you don't mind me asking how much was your wheel set-up?
Any clearance issues, much work to get them to fit?
