What's the history on the WRX? Did he keep up with regular maintenance? What's his motivation for trading it for yours?

If something big goes wrong with the WRX, it's going to be more to fix than your car would have been.

His reason for trading is he hates buying premium gas and he misses driving an accord. Regular maintenance has been done. But insurance will be killer and parts will be also.

Haven't posted any pictures of my accord here in awhile. Hopefully I'm going to be starting my retrofit next week. Just waiting on things to get here.

Got home from vacation yesterday and at 10pm decided to start my retro so I went outside and took out my headlights.

I'm using mini h1s, 6k bulbs, and e46 shrouds. I would like to have clear headlight strips but unable to find any forsale and I didn't want to buy other headlights. But my lenses have been nightshaded on the section anyhow. I call it eyeliner lol but it does flow well with my car being black.

Got the projectors in but can't aim them because it's been raining. Need to start getting my shrouds to fit. Hopefully can get this finished this weekend because they're my only headlights.

Updated thread finally. Haven't quite decided if I'm going to dump more money into this or start saving up for a newer car. (Really want a tsx). since I need to replace my brake pads sometime next month I thought id tell you guys a funny joke I heard "I may be addicted to brake fluid but I can stop anytime I want"

That was good, I'm going to steal the joke :lawl: you definitely won't regret it if you upgrade to a tsx. Still going to be keeping the wagon?

Wagons here too stay. Actually just picked up a hood for it yesterday lol. I just started college today so I'm going to get a feel for that before I decide if I'm going to get a job or not. If I do get a job I'll probbaly save up some money, sell the 6th gen and daily the wagon until I can get a TSX.

Hopefully new wheel set up coming soon. I don't really need to run a winter set up because of the conditions are too rough I'll drive the wagon. But new wheel plans are STR 514s 17x9+22 with 215/40. My wheel will be forsale soon without tires. Gonna paint them graphite or black so it's an easier sale
