Gday all,

I have been spending the whole week reading thru all the topics and have learnt so much on the liberty !
This week Ive already met up with Phat GT, and gone crazy on rhdjapan and japanparts. Think i will contact Leo for some LED bulbs too :)

Currently I have a MY10 GT Auto Wagon in Dark Grey with full Subaru Sports bodykit - bought as a demo with about 12000km.
So far the mods I have done are;

*Changed HID bulbs to 8000K, foglights and parkers to LED T10s. I also have custom LED angel eyes from AutoJoy in Granville
*Xforce Varex dual mufflers cat back (Thank you Dean and Joe at Xforce for the free system!) with a custom switch on the front console done at Strathfield Car Radios at Burwood
Main reason for Varex is so my wife doesnt know I have an exhaust so when Im driving around, i open the valve and as soon as I arrive home, stock sound...I love it !
*Replaced the stock bonnet scoop with Cyber R (from japanparts) and painted at Autojoy.

I have about 20 items coming within the next few weeks...cant wait !

I have a few questions;

The Tommy Kaira LED front and back illumination Subaru Badges look awesome, but are they legal ?
I use my wagon to carry around a full carload of items, would it be a bad idea to put springs (STI) on my car so i can lower it a few cms ? Im worried I will be scraping the car on speedbumps, going up and down my driveway.

Thanks

Gene

Welcome Gene. Look forward to seeing how your car progresses. BTW, custom switch for the exhaust is a very nice touch.

Body kit looks great, welcome. The wagon sh1ts all over the GenV sedans.

Can't say I'm a fan of the angel eyes, Legacy and STi badges and the headlights are a bit too blueish.

Would love to hear how the exhaust sounds.

Angel eyes and blue HIDs are over the top but it stands out, and I have a fear for warm white lights !
I have to admit the STI badge looked fake (it is) so I removed and Im waiting for the original to arrive in the mail.
Exhaust sounds clean and deep. Not too loud but a bit drony on the freeway.
C u all on Fri nite :)

Those led angel eyes: brighter than ccfl, in your opinion?
