Because Box told me to, I decided to make a project thread for my new daily, an 07 Impreza hatch. It's pretty much a stock base model with cruise, and unfortunately automatic, but I got it for a good price and it's in really good shape so I'm happy with it. Don't plan to do much with it other than regular maintenance and a new radio which I already have. I'll probably throw on a set of mudflaps before the winter to preserve it a little better.
Here's what it looked like when I picked it up...a little dirty lol. ![]() After a quick wash and rain ![]() ![]() -------------------- 2007 Impreza 2.5i - Daily

My brother has had luck with the more expensive line of the Opt7? brand, bolt or gold or something like that. Anyhow he had one set in his Maxima with custom projector housings that lasted for a couple years no problems before selling it. Currently has two years or so now on the set in his Genesis, and just installed another with his mini H1 high beams and it was the same colour temperature and confirmed what we thought on the first pair and that's they have lost their tinge of blue with age. Personally if I ever go HID it'll be with some oem projectors, ballasts, and bulbs since I'll have to make custom housings anyway, but I like to make life difficult for myself.
