    First time owning a Subie. I have been getting high beam alot.

    Is it just me or when Subies pass each other they do a quick high beam to say hi.

    If I see a wrx at night yea Ill flash my lights but it depends on your lights too. I have hids on mine and I get high beams flashed at me at least a couple times a week maybe more. And Im even lowered a couple inches too.

    I get flashed both in the brz and the jeep at night by a lot of people. It's fine by me if they want to play the game and think my low beams are to bright (lights are all OEM) then I guess they will just enjoy my actual high beams

    Have you checked your headlight alignment? Are you running HID's in a reflector housing that isn't designed for HID's?

    I'm guilty of a quick high beam flash to my Subie brothers, but only during the day. Who needs that at night...

    Never done or heard of this before. I usually only spot/look for other ru's in the daytime.

    Waves are fairly customary, so a quick "hello" flash wouldn't be out of the question.
    That said, do you have any modifications to your headlights like a cheap HID slap-in kit? Bugeyes used reflector housings that are complete **** for HID kits and scatter like hell, blinding people when they catch a beam. Not sure about blobeyes.

    Sooo... everyone?
