Best Subaru OEM parts we can get
 
I won a $250 voucher for OEM parts at a local dealer.

I am trying to find nice BRZ accessories to get.

Unfortunately, I'm not finding anything I like.


Please offer your ideas, including any Impreza STI parts that fit our car and are actual performance improvements.

Thanks!!

That was going to be my idea as well.

Dont forget you could also buy shirts and hats and a coffee cup and a Subaru thermos and a block heater. Id go that route if I already had cool oil.

Will they let you use it on any of the items here: http://www.subaru.com/enthusiasts/gear/index.html

There's pretty much everything on here from key chains to watches to shirts.

STI strut bar ?

If you don't have the OEM rubber trunk mat, take a look at it. I usually keep my back seat down. Anything sitting on the carpeted area (seat back) slides around as I'm driving. But everything on the rubber trunk mat stays put. I suppose it also protects the carpet.

I actually bought the thing by accident. I was trying to order the silly cargo organizer, but the dealer clicked the trunk mat instead. Turned out to be a great mistake.

Also, that fitted sun visor is a great accessory, especially if you live in an area with plenty of sun. When I forget to put it up, the steering wheel and gear shift knob are like fire.

I agree, I use my trunk everyday and it's a must have.

Thanks a lot for all the suggestions! I should have given a little background. My car is turbo and have pretty much updated everything on it. Added mod list to OP.

Radiator/oil cooler, exhaust. It is a voucher to use at the local subaru dealer. I have homelink mirror, I have sun visor.

No need for block heater in FL.

I would sell the voucher for $200, but it's a paper to be used only at that dealer.

The STI strut bar is an interesting one but I wonder if the dealer can actually order it.

I was wondering if the Impreza STI swaybars are actually an improvement over our stock ones... @CSG Mike

Get the RED LED footwell illumination kit, just picked up my car a few days ago with it and it is awesome.

Sportsguy83 05-05-2014 11:01 AM

I'm almost resigned to just buy the subwoofer, even thought I'm not crazy about it.

OrbitalEllipses 05-05-2014 11:02 AM

Keep it for gaskets, bolts, pop-rivets and other consumable garbage. If you want STI swaybars, they're cheap on the used market as take-offs while using a voucher for a new one would be a waste given the cost (IMO anyway).
