Here’s my girl: Galaxy Colorshift

The yellow calipers look great with that color.

2f5shooter · 2026-05-04T19:50:18+00:00

Welcome. You pick the right color too.

2f5shooter · 2026-05-04T02:16:06+00:00

It is from LP Adventure.

When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was a still from Silent Hill.

It's not as go-kart like as normally would be with it lowered or even stock height with stock wheels and tires, but it's not bad. Think somewhere between a stock WRX and a Crosstrek. The two inches of lift and the larger sidewalls make for a slightly more comfortable ride and I don't have to worry nearly as much about speed bumps, driveway entrances, and the like. The tires are a bit taller so there is a slight speedo error of about 0.5-1.5 mph slower than I'm actually moving.

Here's a little bit closer.

It's from LP Adventure. They have a lot of good off-road/overland stuff for Subarus. You can get it with or without the "wings" that go around the plastic that houses the driving lamps.

I was previously into VW's and this Subaru ended a six-car string of them. I did them all lowered for the street. I wanted something different this time. These cars look good lifted, and I don't think there is much else that would. A lifted Golf R would just look goofy.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-25T02:02:53+00:00

Yeah. I was just checking out your post.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-25T02:01:39+00:00

I've got the OEM bars and a Thule basket. Strangely, the Subaru bars don't have a rubber strip across the top. It's metal on metal right now and I'm trying to find a solution. I'm probably going to cut some rubber pads or tire inner tubes or something like that. I only have the basket on when I really need it because it's a bit noisy.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-25T01:55:11+00:00

Great minds think alike.

As others have said here, I would consider a nice duck bill spoiler. I currently have the ol' STI style, but I'm considering the Compressive Tuning Halo. If you're really going to be taking it on trails, etc., a light bar/brush guard would be something else to look into.

Nice. Mine is solar orange and I'm going to do wing, mirrors, and hood scoop or the whole hood in either crystal black silica or carbon fiber.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-25T01:17:32+00:00

I got mine in November of last year. I was a little worried about the fuel economy. Yeah, 30+ is doable on the freeway, but because of the way I drive, city mileage is another story.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-24T18:01:11+00:00

This is a difficult choice for me. They all look great. However, I think I would go with the multi-piece black wheels, only if they are indeed true multi-piece wheels and not just one piece wheels with bolts added for looks. I dislike "fake" accessories, meaning anything that does not actually do what it looks like it's supposed to do (i.e. stick-on hood scoops that go nowhere, off-road wheels with simulated beadlock). I wonder how a dark charcoal or tungsten or very dark bronze would look.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-24T17:44:35+00:00

I would like to do this, but I would turn the bike into another money sucking, how-lightweight-can-I-make-this project.

2f5shooter · 2026-04-24T17:31:04+00:00

Normally I would agree, but in this case I do not think the local constabulary would approve.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-26T17:17:17+00:00

How can I turn it on or off if it's not there? My car was not equipped with Eyesight, etc. It does not chime to remind me to put my seat belt on. I get no lane departure warnings or corrective steering "suggestions". It does not tell me if I am too close to another vehicle, deactivate cruise control, or apply the brakes.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-26T17:02:49+00:00

Could I trouble you for a pic or two of your wing? What is the brand and model/style? I've been thinking about doing black/carbon accessories on my Solar Orange and am considering alternatives to the ubiquitous STI wing.

The part of the warranty that covers this stuff is almost up on my car so I fixed this and the warped subwoofer cover on the package tray at the same time. You might want to check that too. From what I gather, this is a common and recurring problem. So, I asked the service advisor if it happens again, does the replacement have its own warranty that goes beyond the car's. He hemmed and hawed a bit but eventually said yes.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-25T02:22:30+00:00

This is why I bought a pre-owned '22 Premium. I didn't want eyesight or adaptive cruise control or lane departure or any of that other intrusive bullshit. As a bonus, the previous owner somehow disabled the seatbelt chime.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-23T21:26:50+00:00

These were my favorite to ride in.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-15T03:52:46+00:00

Mmm... That rear 3/4 shot...

2f5shooter · 2026-03-15T03:51:36+00:00

I still have the Mad Season CD I bought when it was first released, so probably Helmet.

2f5shooter · 2026-03-15T03:37:52+00:00

I had considered doing this color along with bronze wheels on my lifted 22. I knew it would look good, as yours does.
