New grille on the way to go with them, along with a few other bits.

Yes....that is a smooth bh, very good job,I think the eyelid s would look better with the l lights the reflectors would offset and make contrast. I am totally digging those ganadors...I never liked them on the bd's for some reason.

Very nice, you getting an underseat sub? Those thing sound pretty good, unless your going to be addng some major bass..hey those tweeters pre-wired in the l models?

 

Damn dude I have dirty dreams about your ride..I didn't really like my third gen much until I scoped yours here..I cannot find a rear spoiler for this thing, all I can find are those ugly ass wind/dust diverter things. Did any wagon models in the states even come with one from the factory...maybe my searching is just not up to par.

I added my door tweeters last week. Love how much of a difference in music it makes. Also I snagged some rear d?pillar tweeters.

 

Are the rear ones factory? Never seen those...

I'm planning to put a sub in the spare tire well. I just picked up a JL 10w3, and am now shopping for an amp. The tweeters were prewired, just had to remove the door cards and plug them in.

 

Plenty of USDM wagons came with a rear spoiler, pretty sure most GTs had them and some Outbacks. I think you can buy the USDM ones new for around $180. The JDM wagons had a similar wing, maybe a little bigger and also had an integrated brake light.

I like this thread. Very good taste OP. Can't wait for the gray paint!

 

How is the ride with the Fortunes? Any nasty bump stop slap over big bumps?

 

Thanks. The ride is pretty good. I actually prefer the ride on these over the BCs I had on my 05 WRX.

 

On nasty bumps, I definitely hear/feel something hit. But I'm not usually driving the car hard enough to not be able to avoid it.

Eyelids will fly off at speed. I've lost a pair.

 

Its better to paint them directly onto the lens.

 

Nice ride. Save your money on the color change, tho. It would take at least 5k for a proper all over paintjob.

 

Thanks?

 

I had a lip spoiler on my WRX held on with only double sided tape. The eyelids still have the unused factory tape on them. I'm not too worried, and if it happens, oh well.

 

Also, I already ordered my paint supplies.

Plasti-dip is cool, had done some trim, f+r lips and a grill on my old car... I have never seen a fully dipped car though some say its pretty good and durable enough. I had thoughts of dipping my 1st gen in the tan color they have but want to see a completely sprayed car before I actually commit to it. What color you going with yaya?

I've seen a couple in person, the quality is in the execution and details. So I'm pretty confident I will be pleased with the outcome. My mirrors are currently plastidipped black. I ordered 2 gallons of matte black as a base coat and 2 gallons of anthracite and 4 spray cans of aluminum for my BBS.

Couple other updates.

 

Picked up a used JL 10w3 sub and ordered JL XD300/1 amp to power it. I've started designing an box setup to mount in the spare tire well for a stealth install.

Test fit my winter bumper setup. Looking to get some new fogs for it, either Hella Black Magic or Piaa Plasma Ion. Was considering a lip for it too, but it's pretty low as is (98-01 Integra ebay lips fit the L/LGT bumper was thinking of trying one of those for $40)

While I was at it, I installed my Cusco Front Power Brace. Just had to slightly notch the bumper beam. Installed some Hella Optilux fog bulbs too.

Paint supplies have been ordered and should be here tomorrow. May try to paint before winter if I have time in between house projects.
