So, this is the plan (as of 2/11/2008) for my car. I am going to take a phased approach, which may take a little longer, but it keeps me from putting together a half-assed looking car. Most of this stuff I know where to get, but some of it (like the Mines Trunk Spoiler) I am hunting for. I may end up buying stuff out of phase, if I can get a great deal on the part, or if I FINALLY find a rare part, but for the most part I am going to stay in this phased plan.
All prices (except for the done stuff) are estimates. If you know of any place I can get this stuff cheaper at, I'd be
ALL ears!

PHASE 1 : Exterior -
$2035 (Done!)
- Rota P1s 18x8 Gloss Black w/ Polished Lip - $1200
- Falken FK-452 235/40ZR18 - $650
- Custom Rear Window Spoiler - $185
PHASE 2 : Engine -
~$1450
PHASE 3 : Exterior -
~$1225
PHASE 4 : Exterior -
~$2000
PHASE 5 : Stereo -
$?
- Full System (replace stock speakers, head unit, add sub) - $?
PHASE 6 : Brakes -
$1500
PHASE 7 : Lighting -
~$1500
There are a few other things I'd like to pick up too, if I can find them/find them at a decent price, like:
I also might end up replacing the Mines Trunk Spoiler with an 07 STI Limited Trunk Spoiler, because finding the Mines could be next to impossible.
I may pick up other stuff too like :
- JDM Lightweight Bumper Beam
- Cowl Stays
- Front & Rear Strut Tower Bars
But it all depends on money (of course!)
