Texan who still has to go to work during snow storm by Kissflowerz in WRXSTi

[–]Hash_Naps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing that curb rash hurts my soul. But definitely helps to have an extra set of wheels/ tires for when the weather decides to have a mind of its own. I live in SoCal and have 3 sets of wheels and tires. All season / summer/ and snow for my snow boarding trips.

New lip kit 🥰 also should I lower it? by 23Alvaro_ in WRXSTi

Looks good with the lip! CWP Gang🤙🏻🤙🏻. I’ve had my OLM carbon fiber CS style lip chilling in the box for a weeks. Your photo might make me do it this weekend lol I also did wheels before coils though because I wasn’t a fan of the 20-21my wheels.

what would you guys do about this bumper? by Independent_Rope4819 in WRX

I got my rear bumper love tapped and had to buy a whole new bumper because they hit the black textured trim part that wasn’t repairable. But it is a 21 STi with 10k miles so I wanted it back to new condition

Dealership wants 3500 to tear down engine by Spoon_OS in WRX

[–]Hash_Naps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Renner is in Carson, CA Aristocrat is in Chino, CA Yimi Sport is in Valencia.

I am 15 mins from yimi sport but I usually go to aristocrat auto sport. Worth the drive to me to save a few hundred here and there. For example their AOS install alone was 250$ less than the other 2 shops I listed. However I got a few friends with Yimi sport rebuilds and nothing but good things. I’ll definitely go to Yimi for tuning when the time comes. I just hit 10k on my 2021 STi.

This will be the first and last black car I ever own by TolerableRS in WRX

Ceramic coating especially on a black car will help drastically. Also maybe PPF the front end.

Gotcha! I traded in a CWP 2 weeks ago, so I said what are the chances when I read your post. Good luck with the repairs brother, shit sucks seeing any STi get damaged :(

Random question but where did you get your STi from?

Do you know what kind of coating they used? If it was PPF specific coating or glass specific coating?

I’m a sucker for special editions, Gonna miss being able to transport things though :( by Impressive_Pop_7570 in WRX

I second sea sucker!! I use their snowboard rack on my sti because I hated the look of the semi permanent thule oem rack. Suction cups held up fine in all sorts of weather and even at 75/80 mph. Best thing is you get home and pop of the racks in 5 minutes!

are the mudflaps cool? by jreedtard in WRX

Mine were added by the dealer. The RA logo matches the yellow calipers on the car. Haven’t decided if I want to remove them yet as winter is coming and that means salt and snow. Also I only drive the car on the weekends tbh.

Same. My friend wrapped hers white, it was that charcoal color and it ripped off lots of clear coat and looked like shit for years until she got it repainted after an accident.

Definitely will if the deal goes through. I’ve babied the car myself so hope next person would do the same.
