Cleaned my N1 exhaust tips today. Car shifts noticeably smoother and sounds a little better too. Also pulls through the rpms a little smoother as well.

Installed PERRIN front shifter bushing along with MTEC springs. Can't believe how much difference it made. I've had whiteline insert before but having all those items together makes huge difference in shifter feel and operation.
Also 17x8 Wedssport TC105X are now in wrapped in 225/45 Michelin PS4

So clean in white. Pictures like this make me hate the stupid front plate law in Texas. Totally ruins the front end

Just some little things. Caps for the door hinges, large circle metal screws, and the door strikers. Also changed from a Diode Dynamics dome light to the OLM Black Series one to make things brighter. Last one is from a week ago but I'm really digging the tS numbered plaque from the tS owners thread, really should have had one from the factory.

Can you post some side and rear angle pictures with the splash guards? I’ve thought about getting them before but haven’t seen hi-res pics from all angles.

Installed JDM STI shortshifter. Feels obviously shorter and firmer but I do not think I'd recommend it for the price - it makes you instantly realize how good the oem one is. Shifter rattle is gone for me so it's a big plus for it.

How do you know that they paid for it... or is this one of those “they worked it into the price you paid sonny boy!” moments? I know that every new Subaru that I’ve bought has included a 2 year maintenance plan for free... were it not free I would just do the maintenance myself.

I know they paid for it because they purchased the car. Subaru is not losing money by paying the dealer to do 2 years of service. The cost of that is figured into the price.
