This happened, and it was awesome:



Then these came in:




And I did my first oil change at 1150 miles. Picked up 6qts of 0W20 Subaru synthetic. I thought for sure I'd feel more power up in the higher RPM's, right?

LOL, yeah, still slow. But what can I say? Before this I leased a "333hp" Audi S4 (which is really more like 400hp - yay Germans underrating their engines!) Next year will come forced induction.

Installed the clear corners, but I think I did something incorrectly, because they keep coming undone at the top; they don't seem to be clicked in all the way. Aesthetically much better IMO:





Also, great news on the wheels: found out they're already at the broker's shop and ready to ship - so much for a 3-4mo. wait! I should have them in a couple weeks if they don't sit at customs for too long. My Perrin exhaust and JPM shift/e-brake boot should be here next Thursday if all goes well. I can spend Thursday installing the exhaust and diffuser, shift bushing, short throw, and the boots. Now to order tires and Eibach Pro Kit springs to tide me over until I can afford KW V3's

My friend Jared took pics of my car with his fancy shmancy camera last night; looking forward to getting those and posting them up!
