Looks nice!
Personally I would bring the rear up slightly to match the front, not drop the front. Looks like a case of saggy ass hiding the tyres ;)

Also, what is that thing in the centre console?!

Looks good mate! Wow, i didnt know the lib wagons ever had the high low knob? I though it was only the forresters!?

Im not being an arsehole when i ask this, its a genine interest question...but is the 2L in a wagon extreamly underpowered? Or does it go ok?

its ok i own it coz its what i could afford om my p's
not may that i know of have the High Low
its good for highway use. but not the easiest to over take on short sections of road.
so yes its underpowered but i wouldnt say its a huge down fall.
driven my mums 2.5 outback auto and say my's better though....
go figure

Awesome car, mate! Just a quick one, is yours 2.0i or 2.0R? Because mine is 2.0R and I have dual exhaust and fog lights set up....I wonder why mine is different then?

I think his is a 2.0i aswell, because mine is identical (minus the fact that it's a wagon) :P

Looks nice mate but despite what you say I must still say that the handling must be harsh as! Also good to see you have kept those wheels rash free :). You should put your pressures up to minimise risk of damaging the wheels.
