She won "Best Original and Modified from 1980+" in the first car show I put her in! There were over 950 cars competing at that car show... I was definitely surprised!

Very nice, love the black & red. I remember my 06 TR, looked exactly like that. Blacked out everything but had some red accents. Everyone called it the black widow, I was gonna get a custom plate that said BLK WIDO but it was taken...

I believe we will be taking Beckee's (Buniboo's) Subie. Mine is too much of a cop magnet :-/

^you seem to not know what alot of subies are like in socal :) your car isnt actually too cop magnet, being wingless here is a huge plus. and you have outta state plates... you'll be fine

Well don't fret we will be driving a subie down there. My subie will be representing. Wew.
SUBA LOU I LOVE YOU!
I wish we could just take both of them down. lol But that would make the car ride dull. Unless we got walkie talkies.. hmmmm...
StuSSYsporT
08-10-2010, 01:14 PM
^sounds good.... and yes, walkie talkies are ftw! esp if u have a group with em. we did that for subiefest the past few years.. goodtimes :)
xXLouLegzXx
08-12-2010, 11:57 AM
Dude, if I could afford the gas money for us to both have our cars down there, I would be all over it! But yeah, the ride would be kinda dull riding solo for 10 hours, haha. Sigh.
Oh oh, I got it... let's start a fundraiser! The "Get both Lou's and Buniboo's cars to Cali" fundraiser! Yes... yesss?!
StuSSYsporT
08-12-2010, 12:05 PM
lol..... im down. i bet if i posted this (with a paypal account of yours) on nasioc, that you would get some donations

08-12-2010, 12:06 PM
Haha, I am seriously tempted. Buniboo, chime in... what are your thoughts? :D
xXLouLegzXx
08-12-2010, 12:07 PM
PS... as of yesterday... I am red tail status, FINALLY!
I am SO gangster, it hurts :p
(Buniboo made me pose like this)
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/Redtails.jpg
I couldn't stop laughing, haha.
StuSSYsporT
08-12-2010, 12:21 PM
^yay for 04/05 tails! and i dunno if you know this or not....... its kinda embarassing . . .
but . .
your pockets are showing :eek:
:lol:
Haha, I am seriously tempted. Buniboo, chime in... what are your thoughts? :D
yes... were waiting :)
xXLouLegzXx
08-12-2010, 12:31 PM
Haha, it's the style, don't hate! I heart those shorts :D
But, I heart my red tails even more! The trade was seriously effortless... and me and Beckee had the tail lights swapped in like 15 minutes tops. The kid just sat and watched us, haha, it was silly.
StuSSYsporT
08-12-2010, 12:45 PM
not hatin :D
as for the tail swap.. yeah, its basic straight forward. did this kid (im assuming it was a boy) even know what he was trading? :lol:
xXLouLegzXx
08-12-2010, 01:00 PM
Yeah, after pulling my headlights like 5 or 6 times on my car (PITA)... we probably could have pulled my tail lights blind folded if I knew it was that easy.
It worked out well.. the kid had a WRB car with black housing painted headlights, blacked out tint windows, black accent wheels... so the black tails looked really well on his car. And the red matching all the red accents on mine looks perfect... so it was a win/win swap :D I am so happy
StuSSYsporT
08-12-2010, 01:08 PM
^good stuff. cant say the same for my tail swap, but thats a whole other story and this is your journal :D
Rally/JDM mod in the future?

Lets do it!! Hahahah that would be so funny. But no seriously. Let's set that ish up.

Personally not a fan of the 04/05 tails I prefer the cleared 06/07 but I gotta say those look damn good on a black subie!!! You should do JDM mod to this :)

there it is!! Jenny...... post up the info and I can set it up on my bbq thread on here and Nasioc

Nice. I love the 04/05 tails best.
And how about a fly Sarah to SubieFest fund, Chad? :)

Haven't posted in a bit... life has been "crazy" to say the least.
Sad news... SubaLou went to a new home in October :( I honestly can't remember the last time I cried that hard... it was pretty brutal.
BUT
All for a good cause. I found out in August that Lou is going to be a mommy! We are expecting our little boy (Rylan) on May 6th :) though he may come a little bit earlier due to some complications. We are VVEERRRYYYY excited for the little peanut to get here!
I temporarily had a Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited (gross)... but currently have the car that I had been waiting patiently to get. Had to fly out to Northern Cali to get her and drive her home. Newest member of the family... 2004 Forester XT Limited... paid 90% cash for her too! <3
(6 months preggers belly, lol)
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/Fozzy-1.jpg
Before she was even registered... I already got to work.
Picked up some stock 06 WRX wheels... my friend Shawn at Unkown Coatings powdercoated them a chrome bronze for me:
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/163692_10150093525910859_311716665858_6051257_1753 036_n.jpg
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/BrozeWheelsFozzy.jpg
The chrome grill was yucky, so I pulled that off and plasti-dipped it:
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/Blackgrill.jpg
Monster truck status also had to go... so I lowered her on 06 WRX stock suspension with 3/8" saggy butt spacers:
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/loulegz21/Fozzylow.jpg
Last night... me and the boy put in an Alpine CDE 102 deck and wired up my 10" Alpine Type R Sub... hope baby likes bass! :D
Having something else installed next week... it's a surprise... I will post once it goes on though!
Nice wheels! Painted mine a very similar colour on my old RS

Nice forester but the grille is probably gonna chip. My dash chips bad and it's inside my car :sadbanana:

Love the new ride! I was anti-Fozzy for sooo long, but there are a few that are changing my mind, your would be one of them. Looking good!
And congrats (again) on the baby!

02-20-2011, 07:05 PM
Thanks :) I seriously love it. Leather heated seats is probably my most favorite thing, woo woo. So when baby vomits, it will wipe right up ;) haha.

haha the WRX is my mommy mobile! and it's our fast car. some people are confused when we tell them it's my daily driver. but when you are a stay at home mom you don't put many miles on it. :D
Congrats on the baby on the way and the new Fozzy!! :)

You don't know how true that will be! haha I would love leather for that reason. It is a little tougher to get a tight car seat install, but it is possible. Definitly find a tech to help install the child seat for the first time though.
MoN, I'm going to have milf compitition on our local site now! haha From what I get most of the girls there are not Mommies. I could be wrong, but I think there is me and maybe 1-2 others with 2 more ont the way! Mommies rock!

02-22-2011, 05:34 PM
Thanks all! <3
its easy to say that, but we all know how modding goes :lol:
True statement. So far I am in wheels/tires and had them powdercoated, lowered, debadged, painted grill, just put in an Alpine deck, wired up my Alpine sub... then this week doing a few more things :) haha. BUT, I will probably stop for a while after this weekend...

Nice forester but the grille is probably gonna chip. My dash chips bad and it's inside my car :sadbanana:
I love the look. Especially those chrome/bronze wheels.
If the plasti-coat grille does chip (it might not), then maybe you can get the grille painted with chrome bronze paint around the perimeter, and black inside.
would that work ?
xXLouLegzXx
02-26-2011, 08:44 PM
I haven't noticed any chipping yet... but it's too soon to say. The only issue with that would be that you can't powdercoat the grill because it is plastic... so I would just have to try and find a paint that looked similar to my wheel color. We'll see how it goes :)
Well, had my Blitz Nur Spec CBE put on last night :) Woo woo. She finally sounds like a Subie <3
(Yeah, I am SUPER appropriate...)
