    It's a rally innovations light bar. Not too many people use them since it's for adding lights for a rally at night event. As I said before I wrecked the light bar and that thing saved my bumper from total destruction.

    lol I know I know I'm painting the wing to get rid of the disgusting carbon fiber. I hate carbon fiber only if the whole exterior is not carbon fiber though. If the whole exterior was carbon fiber it would look alright (there is a older impreza with a full carbon fiber look and I like it). Yeah I still have a lot of work to do when I return home. I hope around the fall time I may be able to visit you guys in GA again. Since I will have to return to Fort Gordon for some more training around then. I hope to drive my RS down there as well so I can meet up with some of you guys on my free time.

    I used to live in Columbus, GA being military we get to move around. I wasn't happy in GA since I didn't like to do the things that were located within an hour or 2. So I decided I like the snow and I like mountains so the natural choice is Colorado. Most likely I will be back to GA in about a year, hopefully. Thanks for the comments.

    I'm hoping to pick up the wagon. It has an STi short block with 2.0L WRX heads. It's pushing over 300 WHP has STi RA gears. I hope to pick this up in January or February. I won't be back to drive it until sometime around May.
