Speaking of STI riff-raff, there are some great pics of STI customizations on the Subaru japan website (at the bottom of the page).

There are a couple of tweaks I thought were cool:


Fully painted slim rear spoiler


Additional LED lamps



Not a huge fan of the body kit as shown, though. Here's hoping we either get an STI edition, have these as options, or are able to source some of the parts like the spoiler and lamps!

Do you happen to have a link for that? I couldn't seem to find things like the new rear spoiler (actually I wasn't exactly sure how to navigate especially well, since it doesn't seem like there's a category system?).

If I had one of the new BRZ, I want that light bar. It looks great on there white press car. Not feeling the stripes on that one tho.

I agree. I'd wanted a painted spoiler on the white as well, as I think the black aluminum looks a little weird on the white pearl. Although I'm really torn between the white pearl and dark grey metallic right now. Feel free to weigh in on color choice as well--I'm banging my head against my desk thinking trying to decide lol.

Go white. It's what I have on order. The black and white contrasts well imo. I find DGM difficult to find matching wheels sometimes. That's just me. What sold me on white was that white BRZ with the vertical led strip on the Japan model. I really hope they offer that as an add-on once the catalog shows up.

White pearl does look really nice, especially at night. However, regarding wheels DGM looks very nice with polished or chrome wheels, a la this BRZ with RPF1s:



Now if only they offered a slightly lighter version of this, perhaps something aston-esque, my colour choice would be easy. XD

Well I've always liked Crystal White Pearl it's nice but it will cost you more and a lot of people have it. I'm always prone to light shades and colors. DGM is nice but it's so dark you might as well have a black car. That's my opinion anyways. If I was to choose it would be ISM or WRB.
