    Hey Im not actually a new bugeye owner, I actually bought the car last summer. But I have been living down in Iowa for school until about a week ago, just wanted to say hi, I drive a 2002 PSM WRX with the DIY lip, blacked out headlights, and blacked out exhaust. As for mods you cant see, its a full XPT opensource stg 2 set up, SRS UP, DP, CBE and K&N drop in set up for 91 oct. Hope to finally see some other subarus around the area, Im from Princeton but im regularly down in the cities.

I drove my Evo down a couple times but that was not the most comfortable ride. small world....oh and Welcome(this is from the ex-subaru turned Evo owner guy who still hangs out on the forums... :/

    yeah for sure, the cars down there were less than average. I was so excited driving down I was thinking, its a college campus so there has to be some car guys.......nope, you, thats it. I idd see an hpa(i think) turboe'd R32 VW though that looked crazy. Ohh Molly Silver, i was just talking to her and she said she thought maybe she knew ya, not much of a car girl though so its a stretch....for now;)

    and as for you owning an evo, if I would have had the money I probably would have gotten an EVO over a WRX, but now that ive gotten into the subaru world, i probably would get an STI over an EVO. But I still have a ton of respect for Evo's and their potential, but I just love the boxer rumble :D

    HAHa im sorry, but i think it is absolutely ridiculous when people spend 600-1000 on HEADLIGHTS, im sorry it just seems crazy to me to spend that much when you could put it towards a new 18g, not that that is my plan or anything ;) But Im very happy with them the way they are though. The only way I plan on changing them is doing a HID retro this summer, or buying a set of morrettes if the right deal comes around

    Thanks! Im gonna take more pics today, I know its not a lot of peoples flavor, but I tinted the taillights a little, and the fogs, and basically blacked out the side markers. I like it but the foglights didnt turn out how I wanted them to, so does anyone know how to get VHT nightshade off? :banghead:

    I thought about it, but I couldnt decide which way i wanted go, so this is how it ended up :biggrin: I really like it, I always want my car to look different and this way i just have to walk around to the other side haha :laugh: plus the blue fits my personality well, slightly obnoxious, and I love the stares it gets!
