I still love the original stock wheels. It's a Matchbox car.

My mom calls my Subaru a matchbox car! But she hates it, so not lovingly.

I thought that too but thought maybe it was just the lighting.

It looks like it’s in the same location as the Civic Type R which behaves in the way you just described. But I think air goes into the NACA duct to blow hot air out through the transmission tunnel area.

Did a wash, including inside the trunk lid area and under the fuel lid. Also did a plast-x job on my headlights to get rid of the yellow. At 8.25 years and 182k miles and have hardly had any issues. I really hope my next car treats me this well.

Thanks. No, it's red spray paint clear coated with SprayMax 2k. Did this in 2014 and the clear coat is just starting to chip a bit on the top side of the tail lights.

Yes, I am really impressed with how well they came out. They look like clear red plastic from the factory in person.
