    Did me some photoshootin today. Hit up a few interesting spots. One spot gave me no good shots and it was a good spot so I'll visit is on a gloomier day

    Enjoy. These photos have very little editing

    Shot with a Sony NEX-5N. Edited with Adobe Photoshop CS5

    P.S. I will go lower and add a spacer in front. I need a roll and camber plates in the rear

    Very nice.... Something about black STI's.. They so sexy.

    your stance is also perfect. I wouldn't change a thing.

    Haha sweet! Whats your name? I'm home this coming weekend for the Boost for Boobies show but I should stop over and say high. After a drive up there I figured out what house it is. I love that I can hear tour car from in my house as you drive into the neighborhood :p

    I'm gonna raise it up to the top of the tire and match it up the front and we're settled for good :)

    Right side needs a tweak on the negative camber as we eyeballed the alignment to start. It only fits my key in it so it rubs hard on bumps

    Haven't post up in here for a while! Updates!

    Got 215/45/17s on the 17x9 +30s and added 19mm and 17mm spacers to make it +11fr and +13rear for the offsets. -2.5 degrees of chamber all around with the rear fenders not shaved and slightly pulled

    Pics from a cruise too

    Not my thing with ridiculous thin tires stretched on a wide rim but whatever, to each his own... I think the prior set up looked WAY better, but it is your car, set it up at your liking.

    I do like that last cruise shot though. the black and white was a nice change as well.

    Thanks. I'd figure some people would say that. She's a DD but still gets plenty of spirited driving :D

    Maybe next year I'll contemplate a set of track rubbers and AutoX it but since she's already at 119,000 miles we'll see
