Installed a red beatrush lockout and OMG, the pin would not budge. I hammered it for about an hour with a 32" allen wrench and it did not come out. I ended up breaking apart my stock lockout (i have a spare lol) and using pliers to squeeze it out. The pin looks like it had expanded. Getting it back in was not easy either. It took me an embarrassing three hours and a broken allen wrench later. Someone please tell me what i did wrong...

Beautiful job! It looks almost like a glass coat. Some guys complain about the durability of the water-based paints in use now, but I find that Subarus have gorgeous paint jobs that put many more expensive cars to shame, and all we have to do is protect them.

Congratulations!

I'm sure the van driver got a talking to. Sounds like maybe a river rafting company truck? If so, getting fired could have been part of that conversation!

The car is starting to take shape now with the Tein Flex A + EDFC Active Controller. They felt great on the way home and really looking forward to the road trip.
Willing to share how they mounted everything? I've got a set coming in the mail

Lol, I hear you. Need to do mine one of these days.
Bought Nov 2012, 7000+ miles and have never waxed it yet. But it sits in the garage and only driven on the weekends. Plan to wax this year.

You could cheat, just wash the car with Optimum No Rinse: https://www.amazon.com/Optimum-NR201.../dp/B00D8DR0AO

Then wax it with Meguiar's quik wax(It's a spray), very quick and easy to apply: https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G175.../dp/B001O7PNS2
