I'm sure most people would agree the bottom looks better than top.

Never been a fan of body kits, but I will admit, I really like your car!

The stock front already does not match the rest of the car, adding more junk does not make it better. IMO. "I'm sure most people would agree the bottom looks better than top." I hope not, but then again I little faith in humanity. Also, that's why RB can sell the cancer they do for the money they do. It's ugly, dood. ETA: It's a cheap-ass car with pretentious bodywork. ETA: Its a fucking Zamboni! I sharted.....

I'm going to split the difference between you two. I like the look of it, but it wouldn't last 20 minutes on the roads around here, not anywhere near enough ground clearance.

I don't mind body kits as long as there is something under the hood to match the outer look. Nothing wrong with individuality.

You won't be disappointed, especially since this color is going away, and it's replacement sucks.
From the pictures I've seen of the new WRX with the new pearl white, the new white is quite nice. It is just a little more on the pure white side of things.

I guess the worst part about our color is its harder to get perfect matches on the plastic bumpers compared to the metal areas of the car.


I saw a Nissan 370Z NISMO at the NY Auto show, although it was immaculate the difference in the white pearl on the bumpers and the rest of the car was glaring.

I like the top better :x

Hell, if you cant match the bumper to the car... maybe match the car to the bumper. Either way, the color difference is way too obvious there, in my opinion.

to each his own... nothing wrong with being different, but people should keep generalizations to a minimum.
