Looking good man! That hole though.
Where'd you source the eyelids from? I know you mentioned it on here but CBF looking back at the moment.

Haha I know man haha, the next time I do a round of painting, I'll grab some front parking sensors so the hole can be filled.
The eyelids are Ultrex, they are only 100 bucks but really aren't great, better off getting either K2Gear or HippoSleek ones, they are much better from what I've heard.

Eyelids aren't a genuine item from Subaru?
Haha, I'm only messing man. One thing at a time.
Seeing your updates makes me want to update mine more and more, I just lose motivation as soon as I load up mine as there is a lot to mention... I'll get there eventually.

They look awesome and the car sits quite nicely on them man. Keen to see some outside shots once they've settled in a bit. Are you keeping the Bilstein struts or selling them off? Despite the mileage they should still fetch a couple of hundred provided they're not leaking or knocking.

G88 recommended TEIN? I always liked them but recently they've been copping some critiscism. They look good here.
Yeah man they sure did. They said they have had multiple customers having issues with both Shockworks and MCA but never had a set of Tein's come back. I've also got some mates that have them and love them. Another reason I wanted to go with them is the ability to purchase their electronic damper controller.

Thanks man, I think I'll keep them for now but might sell them off a little later.
NIce work. You really need to paint your rotor hats and edges though.....
Cheers. Brakes need to be changed soon anyway, so I'm going to do pads, rotors and lines front and rear soon. Plus I'll get the calipers rebuild and sand blasted so they can be painted properly.
Didn't get the angles perfect and the light was very different the next day but heres a rough idea of the difference.
Fronts, before and after.
Rears, before and after.
And full side, before and after.
Certainly some more fine turning to do, but man I'm happy with the result.

Interdasting...considering how much everyone sucks MCA's dick lately.

I'm booking an alignment and having a lot of my bushes changed at Heasman's. Just in the process of organising a date that suits. Too many good reviews about their workmanship and attention to detail. My car is a little unhealthy in the bushes department so once they're all replaced it'll be back to perfection.
Top shot up there; I love the range of vehicles they have parked around the premises. So much eye candy!

Awesome stuff man. I think the car looks heaps better without the stickers too. I'll be taking mine off the next time I give it a wash but I cannot let go of the SubyClub.com one; although I wouldn't mind it in grey to make it less loud I guess?
Gotta love having spare push screws. They always find a way to mangle themselves.
