Feels the same as the day I bought it! Had to replace the stock rubber at about 21,500 which was sooner than I had hoped. Other than that, no complaints.

I wouldn't say either are very easy to remove. The headlights are extra difficult since you have to take the front bumper off first. I'm sure you can find them both in the DIY section.

If you got a leaf in one, certainly water will be able to get in. I'd say take it back to the dealer under warranty.

(If you're talking about the stock ones. If you got the Valentis you may want to contact them.)

Got it detailed again to get rid of winter's lovin'.



Today I bought chrome spline nuts to replace my crappily-painted stock ones from my first winter steelies, new oil filter and ring, and 6 quarts of Subaru Genuine 0W-20 since apparently our cars take about 5.8 quarts? Thirsty lil' buggers they are. Stock tires get put on tomorrow. Drift Ready!
