So here is one of the cars that we picked up yesterday from a dealer in CT.

Paid $4k for what I think is a CLEAN bugeye. I don't think I have ever seen one this clean except when they were in the showroom.

It is a bone stock garage kept car. It recently had the TB and HGs done. It is a very entertaining car.

Current Mods:
WRX Wheels - Ghetto rattle-can black
05 WRX Catback - Ghetto rust steel


Future Mods - nothing too crazy, no swaps.
WRX/STi Sways
Possible shock/strut combo - it is my wife's DD, so it still has to be pretty comfortable
Wagon wing
ICE - We are music people so we like it loud and clean.

It does look very clean but do you plan on putting in foglights? The front bumper just looks bare with covers.

I'm not sure yet. It's my wife's car, so I am doing some stuff little bits at a time. I am not sure I wanna really start messing with the wiring. For now, I am putting on a set of either WRX or 03 OBS rims, a WRX grille, and a set of black housing headlights. The sways and possible WRX strut/spring combo will be next with the headers and WRX exhaust rounding it out. After that, it will be done.

I also need to find a factory head unit that will fit in the car that has a aux input for both cars. The factory stereos aren't too bad, but I like listening to Pandora.

Picked up a set of badly painted 03 WRX rims with tyres. Traded my WRX seats for it since they aren't gonna go into any of my other cars. I am going to plasti-dip them black and then mount them up. I also found a stock 05 WRX exhaust since her resonator pipe is rotting out. Finally, I have some black housing Bugeye headlights from Subieee coming on Saturday. I will post up some pics on Sunday or Monday. It is gonna look hawt, y0!!!

Subieee came and went and the head lights are in the car. It looks awesome, but will look SOOO much better when the wheels are on. Expect pics later on tonight!

Nice, they definitely change the way the car looks. Probably because of it being black on white haha.

Some better shots, but this time with the headlights too.

One thing this car needs is moar low!! WRX suspension is next, as I still want to keep the car comfortable.

Again, a very good choice in part selection. The headlights plus the wheels create a theme. Sort of reminds of when Rob Dyrdek had the "Stormtroppered out" cars. All white with black accesories.

That was part of the plan. ;)

The wife is a huge Star Wars fan so doing the Stormtrooper theme wasn't lost on her.
