    I am curious to see if you guys think this will look good with STi wing? Or is it too much?

    By the way, it's molded after the M3 spoiler

    I think it looks good. If the 06-07s can pull of their rear windshield spoiler, you can certainly pull off that. Actually something I'd consider doing to my own car. Is this a custom thing, or does someone actually make it for the impreza?

    I don't get on Nasioc hardly ever, but I must say I'm extremely disappointed by the fact that people are telling him he should "slam" it. I see that all the time on IA, I would have liked to think that Subaru enthusiasts had a little more taste. Oh well...

    Minus the white wheels, and the guys decision only to post pics that went through a gauntlet of photoshopping (and then hop upon his high horse when people ask for non editted photos), very nice looking car. :)

    Those look really good. Chargespeed makes one thats a little flashier if you're wanting the 'look-at-me' factor.

    Basically, this guy has a friend that does plastics molding. He got the m3 rear spoiler and had them mold it to the impreza rear window. There are several things Ive heard about it that will require the owners attention:

    (1) coloring on it is terrible, needs to be sanded, primed and repainted
    (2) has that odd little dip on the right hand side corner, this needs to be filled, smoothed and then painted (see step 1)
    (3) needs more double sided tape

    other than that I think it would look badass with my black roof :)
