Billy,

Was wondering what your thoughts are on the mid waist spoiler? I just put my STI wagon wings on and the mid waist seems out of place. I'm considering going back to the smaller OBS mid waist. That's just me. The STI top spoiler looks great and fits the car but the mid waist just doesn't seem right. Just curious what your thoughts were.

Beautiful car by the way. Hopefully mine will look like that one day, but SRP...

Thanks for the props man! As for your dilemna, well let's put it this way and the sooner you find out in life the better... who gives a rat's ass what anyone else thinks?

Do what you feel suits you... now I don't mean go panty raiding every night but with regards to the waist spoiler, there are PLENTY of people who would love yours.

If you still have the stock one to put back on, may I suggest a person in Toronto for you to sell it to? He's been cursing me ever since I got mine because he's been looking for like 3 years or so for a genuine one. And I do mean actively too.

How do you feel about that two tone on your OBS?

Hey James, yeah no worries. I know that good deeds always get returned in some way or another. Just trying to contribute to the community that gives so much.

Thanks dude. Can't quantify how fast this thing is yet as I haven't taken her to the track but omg, 4th is a passing weapon... but then again I'm comparing it to my stock powered MY00 RS2.5 MT sedan which netted 16.2 with a subbox and full interior.

Red isn't my fave either... I wanted a white one but oh well. My wagon is kind of white now anyway as I drove over some fresh paint lines and now most parts of the lower half of the body is speckled white.

You're totally correct. I was just wondering your in person view was that's all. Seeing them on pictures and seeing it in person is one thing. I will play with it and see what I like the best. Right now I'm leaning towards stock mid waist with STI top wing, but we'll see. Maybe I'll just leave the mid waist off who knows. Whatever gets the best look when I walk to and from my car each day.

The two tone? Ahhhhhhhhhhh, can't stand it, but what can you do except fix it? That will be down the road, one step at a time I guess..

I would like to someday use 16" rims so I suppose a switch over to an FHI 4/2 pot setup is around the corner. I dig the red calipers and think it would look good poking out from behind black coloured spokes.

During the building stages nearing completion...

More pictures! Hope my photobucket account doesn't choke on me.

On the road finally... with winters on but what the heck!
