Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum but I've had my hatch for a little over a year now
I wanted to "show off" what I've done to my baby to people I know would appreciate it ?

Factory Options:
Package 33
Ext/Int Auto dim mirrors
Approach light
Rockford Fosgate Audio

"Exterior" Mods
Ceramic Tints all around
Vinyl Wrap black: chrome window trim, grill, fog light housing accent
25% smoke wrap Amber delete headlights
25% smoke wrap white part of the tail lights
Yellow fog lights
Plasti dip: wheels vintage gold, trunk spoiler black
Debadge
Rally Armor mudflaps
All-Fit brand front lip
OEM window deflectors

"Interior"
Black Sys 200-CH dash cam, always running.
(Mounted immediately underneath the neck of rear view mirror) rear is mounted on the top of the rear window with wires running behind the trim
It doesn't affect the eyesight system whatsoever
The EZ pass works perfectly fine where it is too

iOttie brand phone mount. Ran the charger from the center console USB through the trim on the right of the driver's seat, through the steering wheel area and comes out on the left

Velcro'd a coin holder to the underside of the center console lid
Organizer tray was made for <2016 so it doesn't fit exactly right
Husky Weather Beater mats front and back
(I like these over Weathertech cuz it covers the gas cap lever)
Lucky rabbits foot hanging from the wiper stock
4Knines brand seat covers front and back. Dog not included!!! Plain dog bed
Cup Holder Hero brand mats for all cup holders and "cubbies"
Topfit brand rubber tray thing to put my sunglasses on. (It slips a lot so put 3m rubber nonslip thing underneath)
Took the Impreza badge and put it on the area above the glove box

I just ordered the nameless performance brand axle back exhaust with muffler delete. I can't wait to hear it roar!

Future mods:
Wrap the door handles and roof rails
K&N air filter
SSD light bar (maybe)
Cross bars and wind fairing
Vinyl Wrap black the whole roof

I think that's all for now. Let me know what you guys think!
Thanks

Best looking Limited I've seen, nice job!

Black Sys 200-CH dash cam, always running.
(Mounted immediately underneath the neck of rear view mirror) rear is mounted on the top of the rear window with wires running behind the trim

Where did you plug in and how did you run the wire for the dash cam? I've been wanting to get one but the thought of figuring out power for it is the only thing slowing me down.

I got all my stuff from blackboxmycar.com
I have their Celllink Battery pack thing to power the cam 24/7. I didn't want to have it constantly drawing power from the car battery, and also because I don't know how to wire it properly ?

I wired everything through the trim, and was going to place the battery unit itself in the glove box to hide it completely, but I needed the space in there. (But if you can spare the space it would look great tucked away!!)
So it hangs out in the passenger footwell secured by Velcro, but I'm going to get a bracket to have it more secure and sturdy.
It's more expensive and intrusive than having it hardwired but I like the security knowing it's not taking anything from the car.

Nice job! The coin holder idea is neat.

I've got a dog about the size of yours, and since he can't stand not being able to see out, he kept wanting to climb in my lap. I ended up getting a Pet Gear car booster seat, which both gets him high enough to see out the windows, and has tethers to clip to his harness so he doesn't become a flying object if something unfortunate happens.

That's definitely a very safe idea! My dog jumps in my lap once in a while too. I got her the same exact booster seat, and she liked being able to sit and see out, but hated that she wasn't able to jump on my lap whenever she pleases LOL.

Where did you find the amber delete for the headlights? I have a limited as well and can’t find them anywhere

Question how did you get the outer part of your headlights black like that?
