PegGTS' 2007 Impreza Hatch, Just a boring daily, nothing special Options

[PegGTS]

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

Nice pick up, always liked the front end of the 07's the most.
Selling the Camry now?

Glad to see my persuasion skills are still up to snuff. I know deep down there's a lot of small stuff you want to do already like painting or changing the rims, lowering springs, window tint, etc... I have to admit for a wagon those year Imprezas do look good even stock, personally I rather have a wagon over a sedan since to me the body flows better and they're a lot more useful.

Yeah the Hawkeye was definitely my favourite of this gen. Yeah I'll be selling the Camry, just gotta fix a couple things first.

I've got a few things in mind but for now I can't afford anything

Installed a new Pioneer deck on Saturday. Haven't been able to listen to my own music since I sold the Celi so it's nice lol.




And here she is sitting pretty

Yay new stereo! Needs more low. *cough* Was thinking the other day depending on your laws if you lightly smoked the tail lights that'd look good, being they're an "Altezza" style a light tinting would go a long way.

If anything I'd get the overlays like these, not really a fan of tinted tails. I don't think these would fit the wagon though.

It's hard to tell but it does seem the sedan and wagon tail lights are slightly different toward the upper corner. You could always use red vinyl tint, but then making uniform cutouts for the reverse lights could be tricky.

black car means tinted windows are a must to "look" right. I second the tinted tails. I hate the altezza looking lights on my matrix. still gotta tint them up one of these days.

*actually, more like I gotta stop doing work on the matrix and start doing work on my celicas. haha

Actually get some 02-03 2.5rs seats. Thank me later. That and some strut braces should be good starting points

How are they different from the seats I have now? I'll keep a look out for some. Also any idea if there's any tail light overlays available for the wagon?

The seats are more comfortable and have more bolstering to hold you in better. Not sure if they make overlays for the wagon. Search on nasioc and see.

I feel like that's a lot of forums. This one seems to be the most friendly towards newcomers. Its rather nice.

[PegGTS]

Even though this forum is pretty slow, I like it the most because it's such a small community and everybody knows everybody. A lot of other forums are just too big and it's just not the same.

This one is good and I love 914 world. Really great forum for 914s and lots of friendly people.
