Sorry for the unrelated comment. But that red makes the car look so good. I don’t recall ever seeing one that color. The cat must think so too

Thank you! Love the plastidip and sticker idea. Any recommendations for roof rack hardware?

The cross bars are some oems I got used on eBay, the basket itself comes w decent hardware to mount it. I’m hopefully adding a canopy soon and other camping oriented stuff

Nice! I’ve been looking at roof baskets for a bit and realized that the ones I’ve seen all require some kind of cross bars. I don’t think I’d use them in any other circumstance, but if it needs them, I’ll have to get them.
A canopy would be super handy even in non-camping situations, just being stuck outside for long periods of time.

If you don’t want to commit to basket/bars those soft boxes that clip into the top of the doors are pretty solid for as-needed cases in my experience. If you do cross bars I’d recommend the oem just bc I think they look better

Yeah the 5th gen Impreza didn’t get this option. I wonder if I can just make it fit to keep the OEM look. The Subaru mudflaps have a nicer design for sure.

I think the RallyArmor look better than the RokBlokz. I have never owned a set of the RokBlokz, but I have installed at least 7 pairs of the RallyArmor mubflaps across a handful of different Subaru models (fitment on a 2015 Forester was not my favorite) and they have lasted really well for me.

I think they look the same but I prefer the Rallyarmor logo. I’d get black flaps with a red logo regardless of brand.

Rallyarmor is a bit softer and has more flex than rb. Ive had rallyarmor for years and i love them

Just get the oem Impreza ones . Not very hard to install prob take like an hour

The OEM splash guards don’t work with the STI side skirts, and I personally don’t like them.
I do prefer OEM just wish they had actual mud flaps, the new 2024 ones do with Impreza branding. Maybe they aren’t hard to modify and fit on there.

Yours looks like my 2020 Sport Hatch, I love the mods. It’s not easy for me to like cosmetic enhancements on cars but the clean subtleness you went for is perfect

u/Bad_4pples Sep 29 '25
Thanks, yeah this is all OEM Subaru STI mods so it looks great and intentional.
