- J pipe + exhaust
- AP + Tune
- HIDs
- Upgraded oil cooler

For a bit under 10k, we have a completly innocent looking sleeper, minus the single exhaust.

I've debating putting the stock catback back on.
Exactly!! Lol.

The WRX is a killer car, and gives so much bang for your buck. If I wanted something to modify heavily, I would have opted for the WRX most likely, but I just want something that I can leave alone and enjoy owning lol.

A lot of the stuff I've seen that I liked were all JDM or STI add ons. The front lip, strut brace, rear fog light etc. Just simple things.

I will probably add something like RCE yellow springs and a nice set of wheels though in the somewhat near future. No rush though as I actually really like the OEM wheels on this thing.

My first purchase I think is going to be paint correction and opticoat once I get to California. Probably a clear bra on the front half of the car too.
