As far as cosmetic or other lighting mods, I still have to make one-off puddle lights, and reverse lights. The reverse lights are going to be something else... I will be doing the STi caliper and rotor swap some time this year, and really really like the Chargespeed CF bottom lip kit. I'm not sure if I can stomach the price just for some bit of aero tho.
Wow that is some pretty exciting stuff right there!!! Yes I agree, the portion of my project involving the factory electronics should be fun. If it gives me too much of a headache I will simply eliminate the b!*#H and go old school It is unfortunate how "new" vehicles have an abundance of sensors and controls. Keep me updated with your progress!

I'm actually looking to go with STi/EVO (Brembos). Haven't decided yet because I want dual rear brake calipers. Seems like we have the same taste because I was leaning towards the Chargespeed front lip if I stayed with my BRZ front bumper but that sucker is $$$! lol
