    during the weekend, took Letty to the shop and did a muffler delete. Best $70 spend and my car sounds like a real subaru.



    Also, lowered the car even more just because of the low life lol



    You can't see in this photo of the front grille. But, I've plastic dip the grille and it came out good but you do see the imperfection up close. Just trying to find a loophole instead of buying the OEM mesh grille.



    CXracing coilover review:

    So far, driving on these coilovers for 2 weeks and they are pretty good. I like them a lot because I only use my car on a daily base and not planning to track the car anytime soon. The cons I have about these coilovers: The rear springs are too soft and bounce during traffic and they dont go crazy low unless you mess with the preload which is not recommended. Besides that, the drive is excellent. I will need to mess with the damping more so my car can stay consistent when driving it daily.

    Thanks, definitely agree about getting new wheels. Even though its low, still need the wheels to give it that stance look.

    After a long weekend, the FB20 is finally on coilovers. 08-14 WRX (non sti) Cxracing coilovers with camber plate and 32 way damping adjustment. These coilovers are pretty good for daily driving. Need to make sure to break them in and give a full review. The front lip I got as a present from my girlfriend. You can get it at baysonmotorsport or search thru ebay. Also, threw some gold lug nuts to give the rims to stand out. So far this is what I accomplish in the past months. Here's the list of future plans:

    -Custom muffler or Namless Performance muffler delete
    -Window Tint 35% front/25% rear
    -OEM hood protector
    -OEM window visors
    -Hella horn
    -Sport mesh grille
    -Aftermarket rear roof top spoiler
    -Rims still undecided
    -Aftermarket stereo with double din touchscreen deck
    -Smoke HELIX 3D LED TUNNEL TAILLIGHTS

    I personally would have gone coilovers, because it looks like it could get dropped a bit more. But not bad for springs. Now that I see the coils, then it's going to drop it nice.

    Sorry everyone for the months of delay. Been busy for the past couple of months and haven't updated anything on my car till today. Finally going to install Cxracing coilovers from 08-14 Wrx (non sti). These coilovers have 32 way damper adjustment and camber plates. There are many good review from the Lexus and Nissan community, Since I'm on a tight budget due to future plans. I hope these coilovers will give me the similar results like BC racing and ISC coilovers. Will be installing this weekend and getting the alignment done next weekend.

    I'm sure companies like Broadway Suspension would be happy to help: http://www.broadwaystaticsuspension.com/
    There are other companies that make custom suspension for different cars, but can't quite remember their names.
    Thanks for the advice. Really appreciate it. I did some research about broadway suspension but only thought they made it specially for euros. I will shoot them a email once I have the money saved up.

    tbh, it is a small change. I've expect it to go much lower. At the moment, just riding it until I can afford coilovers and will definitely will do before and after photos.
