    Sad to hear. Makes you remember things can change very quickly.

    A thing or two...
    The front bumper on my wrx will just barely clear most parking stops/curbs. If you put a lip on it or lower it, then it won't clear. I don't have any plans to lower mine right now. That way I don't have to worry about it when I park.

    I hadn't planned on lowering mine when I get it, but that's good to know. It will definitely take some getting used to, as I am used to being able to mow down animals, fences, mailboxes, small children, large children, etc without worry of them getting hung up underneath ;)

    but a lot of the WRXs (especially the 2015+) really dont need to be lowered IMO.... they already fill the wheel gap pretty well and come w/ an aggressive stance from the factory

    soon, instead of mowing them down, you'll be able to hit boost and go from 0-60 in 5.2-ish seconds!

    Oh yeah I'd definitely love to see that switch pro set up. As far as convincing the wife (if you're inclined to do that) you have to tell her she won't see shit with the light pollution.

    http://darksitefinder.com/maps/world.html Flagpole knob is right on the edge of one of the darkest spots on the east coast! Type it into the search and check out the map. Really makes a significant difference as I'm sure you've noticed before going out there.

    Most people seem to love their Icons but I've heard a few people say they don't last as long. Of course they are rebuildable too. Budget?

    Budget wise i'm not trying to spend more then 3000 dollars i am driving across the country in my truck so a comfortable ride is a must.
    I'm leaning towards the tubular UCA stage 3 kit seems like best bang for your buck.

    ....I have always just focused on icon for suspension but i am willing to look into other companies?

    I've never seen anyone say bad things about their Kings. Pricey but apparently worth it.

    I have Stage V. Totally worth it. But probably out of your budget.
