What's up peeps. How's everyone doing? I was hoping to make the last G meet, but got really busy. I'm currently in the process of getting a 2011 Subaru WRX STi sedan. I was planning on buying the car yesterday, but the car has a boost leak.

Take the hit and run as an excuse to get an aftermarket bumper. There are a lot of very clean aftermarket bumpers for the 35 coupes. Then from there you can decide on lips/bumpers for the front. You have sport sides so you don't really NEED anything for the sides depending on how clean or agressive of a look you're going for for the front/rear.
To keep is looking seXy go a mild cheap drop. Springs such as Tanabe's are only like $2-300 bucks. To save $$ on install we can definitely do the install at my place(like i said...save it all for spring...i'll have the garage done w/ tools). We've had plenty of people that have done the install to know exactly how to do it including myself.
I'm not driving it through the winter. just found out my deductible is $500 so i probably won't go through insurance so not in a hurry to do anything. i'll shop around through the winter for something (probably end up doing an OEM) but we'll see. I'll also shop around for springs, tires, and possibly rims.

Its boarder line. i personally don't think so and i'm getting mixed opinions on that. It won't hurt taking it to that one shop Tevi did his lip at to see if they can fix it. if not i might go OEM. btw, Abra quoted me $400 for paint uninstalled, which is about what i thought it would be.
