So. I know this kid. My friend Josh. Used to have an sti that looked like this.

![http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/12/web/708000-708999/708035_18.jpg](http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/12/web/708000-708999/708035_18.jpg)

it was pretty horrible.

He let me borrow it for a weekend, and told me to make it a show winner. He wanted it ready for Scrape By The Lake… **where he took First Place for Subaru’s** :tup:… not to mention he got all his points in the cleanliness section.

I went in with the mentality that if he didn’t win the show, he would atleast receieve more respect from people around here.

**well, with a couple thousand dollars later, I got it looking like this.**

The Mod list is.

Pioneer Flip Out Touch Screen DVD Player navigation thingy  
new speakers all the way around.  
20% tints in the back, 35% up front.  
ALL blue vinyl removed. :tup:  
big ugly body kit removed. :tup:  
all neons removed. :tup:  
18" 5Zigen GN+ Lightweight rims  
Falken Azenis Tires  
Tein S-Tech Springs  
Some japanese company headlights-not even Dot approved :bloated: :tif:  
a nice buff and wax.  
aem intake :tdown: - or so im told

ordered the springs and intake from hyrbid. a big :tup: to those guys for getting the parts in on time 🙂

i like it 2309273 times better than before.

and i got to have my fun with it for a weekend!

HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH THAT IS YOUR FRIEND!?\>!?!?!!?!

That kid is the BIGGEST tool to ever own a subaru around here! I remember he came on buffaloscooby and everyone predicted he would wreck it within a few months, well guess what happened! “drifting” on the street just about ripped off an entire corner of the car, A-Arms ripped right off of the chassis, etc. Isnt he like 16 years old?

His salesman at Northtown had to teach him to drive stick the day he picked up the car… hahaha.

BTW, I sure hope you got it aligned.

Otherwise, :tup: , thanks for ridding the world of one disappointment of a subaru.

yes. that is him.

hes most defintely changed from a year ago.

hes grown up.

he doesnt like body kits anymore, but rather cool stuff like COBB MOTORSPORTS ACCESS PORTS.

I don’t know if the stick thing is true, but the STI was his first car, so it could be :gotme:

I was there when the car was wrecked. He took a corner too fast…it happens. What do you want from a 16 year old with a sti?

all i can say is that if you don’t know him personally dont judge him. cause hes pretty much one of the nicest, down to earth kids around, and has bent over backwards to help me out.

yes it gets aligned tomorrow.

Looks much better. As for the salesman showing him how to drive, you got to learn somewhere. When I bought my first GTO way back when, the seller took me for a ride to show me how as I had never driven a stick. It happens…

Good work on everything but the lights, the factory ones cleared out look better than those cheap (looking) things that are on there now.

the headlights look interesting, i’m going to look into it as my scooby is black as well. although i already had one of them replaced after the accident, had i known there was another decent option i would have gone for it. there is this nasty fog light kit, but it’s one of the only options if you want driving lights without some sort of bar. this headlights could make it look good.

and i agree with zwarbyt…

Nice job with his car. It looked absurd before.

I do hope he’s changed since last year, his behavior on Buffalo Scooby was pretty special.
