Show off your Sedans!
I was thinking that, too. Minor point, but a valid one.
However, kdawg8526 gets respect for taking his car to a qualified drag strip and actually running it. Most of us just talk big, but never do anything with our cars except drive to work and get groceries... like a boss, of course.

Is there a gap in between your front bumper and headlights? You should consider doing the bumper swap to, it will really complete your look..
Since most expensive part of the swap are the headlights lol..

There is no gap. Im still using my original headlights. They just retrofitted the projector from the 2010+ sedan.
I'm not feeling click-clack's LED daytime running lights, they seem out of place... probably because of the LED's around the projectors. It's too much now, so one or the other, IMO. But otherwise, the car has a whole lot of appeal. Dark, but not black. I like it. Very unique without being too flashy.
ClickClack, what's the difference in projectors from 09-10? Is there a significant advantage in looks or performance to consider the change? Also did you go w/ a clear lens swap?
Looks good BTW! Rochester makes a valid point w/ the bumper DRLs, they seem to take a back seat to the Ironman mod but probably looks pretty dramatic at night.

Thanks 818! @Rochester, I'm still not sure if I'm gonna keep the DRLs. They we're perfect before the Ironman but now I'm wondering if its a bit much. In person the DRLs match the Ironmans perfectly and I'm pretty commited since I drilled holes behind the DRLs to run the wires.
@Blnewt, There's not much of a difference in the projectors besides the shrouds. There's not really a good spot to stick the leds on the 07-09 shrouds while the 2010+ shrouds have a flat face around the lens. I did go with the STi-R lens swap like you suggested and I love them. I'm getting brighter light output, and a sharper cut-off with a nice blue hue at the top.

Might want to consider a light coat of Nightshades over the DRLs, might blend better w/ your whole front end look
