Tough crowd here. Car looks good. Whats the hood on there? I quite like the idea of a vented hood.

It's a seibon vs-style hood.

So what's so "STI" about the BRZ STI? A lip kit and badges?

Yea lol, Sheesh rough crowd for sure! It's a process! Buy a part install it repeat and hope it all goes well. I mean even the actual "sti" version doesn't look much different from the base. Looking for more ideas and parts to make it look even better. And also planning on having it painted mako chameleon blue soon as well. But thanks for those who have encouraging and kind words!
