That's not his exact car, just the same model. You can see the STi brakes poking out from behind the wheels. I doubt he'd be on this site if he had that exact car (:

The modded picture is pretty close to what I've got on mine, and it seems to be the 'low hanging fruit'. The grillblock/airdam up front, then the smooth wheels. I've also lobbed the mirrors off because they're truck-sized and account for nearly 1 mpg each at highway speed. Before doing anything I'd suggest getting a scangauge or some other instrumentation and seeing what works and getting your driving style up (: Otherwise I'd suggest the first aero mod be a grillblock. It's easy to know if you screw that up.
