Nice find mate, glad you finally got what you wanted.

Oh and I'm fairly sure the WRX badge you put on should be a bit closer to the bottom edge of the boot lid, doesn't really matter but thought I'd let you know anyway.

I like it the way it is mate, and if it makes u happy its all that matters. Looks clean as mate, time for some headers, 3inch TBE and a tune.

Rocker covers arnt hard to do either mate, I did mine last week, I bought all new seals and bolt seals from subi for 200 or so, and took me 4 hours to put all the new bits in.

Congrats on the buy!

to me badges just get in way of cleaning/waxing, and i reckon without badges it is a much cleaner look. But as you said, each to his own

A good quality fully synthentic 5w30, i would say. It shouldn't be /pouring/ out - But yeah, keep an eye on your oil levels and get it fixed up next service.

If you're doing a service soon, might as well get a new oil filter, can of upper engine cleaner etc as well, while you're at Subaru to get the parts. Don't just fix the one that's leaking, you'd want both done.

Did you buy the car expecting to be fixing up a few little bits and pieces? If you love the car to death, spend a extra grand on making sure she's tip top.
