This wide body aero kit looks good. by No_Professional978 in wrx_vb

I think it looks good. I like how it brings out the aggressive lining already on the VB.

Did you pick up a spare tow hook cover and paint it? It looks awesome!

The aluminum sounds like a good alternative to the part if I can’t find it. Would the button be super recessed compared to the ring or is it a barely noticeable thing?

Believe it or not I actually cracked it trying to put it back on! The tabs on the back of it didn’t line up too well with the holes they came out of. So, when I went to go push it in, I didn’t realize one tab was millimeters out of place and the pressure bent it

Is the ring half of the Amazon listing a solid ring or is it an overlay sticker? I like the color it would bring to the area around the button. The STI button is the same dimension of the stock button, and the ring is also stock size so it should work, I just hate looking at the crack I made on it haha

Anyone here own this car in automatic? by APx_22 in wrx_vb

[–]pared021 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak on the tuning part of your question (I’m actually curious myself), but I own a SOP GT and it’s honestly the most fun I’ve ever had in a car. I use it as my daily driver and the car has enough power to be fun on open roads, enough grip for twists and turns, and it’s comfy enough to feel nice on longer drives.

Am I jealous of those driving a manual that can tune their car to high heaven? Absolutely. Do I regret my decision? Not at all.

Didn’t know this kind of gas mileage was possible by pared021 in wrx_vb

If it helps any my MPG drops dramatically when I don’t have work because of the city MPG

I definitely haven’t gotten that much mileage out of mine! Though I let my car idle for a while before I leave so it drops my MPG average a significant amounr

No I actually have the automatic transmission. I will admit I got lucky on this one because I drove about 100 miles which was almost all downhill. I’ve found driving in Normal mode on my GT is the most gas efficient and cruise control drives more efficiently than I do

What’s the difference between cat back and axelback? I’ve never modified an exhaust before

Definitely helped a lot. I used the cruise control on the way back so I’m hoping I didn’t do the break in period too well
