New parts means New Pics for the stormy Blue Mica 8!

Me and a few friends decided to go out and take pics, i took the pics of my car parked, my friend edvis took the rolling pics, and retouched the first roll pic, i wish he could of retouched all of them, but hes a busy dude, and my photoshop skills are cr@p. But enjoy the pics, let me know what you think!

A few new parts have been installed since i last posted pics, 20%tints all around, TurboXS full Exhaust, Aem CAI, and a few windshield stickers

Before anyone says anything, springs are coming next paycheck (Eibach progressive rates), and new wheels and tires soon to come (axis super hiro's in flat black or black with blue pinstripe)

Enjoy!















This wrx below is owned by my good friend steve, and I tell ya, it may look stock but after a sti swap and your avg bolt ons and 320AWHP and 370lbs/tq its just a sleeper

I'm from freehold, nj

The pics were taking off of rt. 9 in howell, at some department stores, i think we shot behind "Micheal's" some craft store, IMO behind stores and construction sites look great as backgrounds. I'm still trying to find an abandoned old creepy house to shoot at.

thanks guys, keep um coming!

Looks good, I think the TurboXS exhaust should stick out from your bumper a little more, IMO it looks a little hidden...but I guess that is just how it is made.

Thats the only thing that bothers me as well, is that the turboXS was made shorter then any other exhaust, but i'm in the works of finding perfect tips to be welded in place.

i think even just the stock aero package would fill it out enormously. I love the paint, looks great, only thing I dont like is the stickers on the windshield I believe car should be pretty damn fast to have stickers like that on it haha.

Looks good. I think the Axis Super Hiros in black with a blue pinstripe would look good. You know what might actually look even better IMHO? Axis Hiros in silver and then powdercoat the silver black so you would have black with a chrome lip.

ahh good suggestion, but im trying to stay away from chrome, hate cleaning it, i want all solid color or something with a small pinstripe, the superhiro's fit right in

Do it man I am having the same CAR with SAME idea....or I will do it! :P

Its so hard to find proper rims for Stormy Blue Mica...white won't work, gold probably won't work, black doesnt really flows with the colour with my interior sand leather...#$%^

Probably a black / gunmetal inside with Silver/chrom lip...Hiro is great...other than its heavier ?

POST PICS WHEN YOU GET IT MAN! thumbs up!!!

Actually no, not into the ricer stage, those are just parts i have on my car, like repping the quality parts each of those company's produce. Some may find it ricer, others ehh.. but to say its ricer, its not like im ricer revving at every streetlight, have a 3 foot spoiler on the back, pretty much any unnecessary B.S.

Just look at my car, whats ricer about it, to you okay the stickers on the windshield, but i have no unnecessary ****. Look at every track car, those all have stickers on the doors, windshield wherever, and i'd like to see you call them ricer

maybe our minds just dont think the same.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but word of advice: use photo shop to delete your license plate. People can gain all sorts of info about you from your plate alone. Just FYI.
