I can't believe even with a grill block you still kept it 'styleish'!
I got the ramps at my local auto store O'reilly auto parts. Im sure you can find them at any auto parts store.

Thanks for the compliment on the grill block. Since it is the first thing that everybody sees, i spent the most time on it to make it look "presentable." The "tuner - wrx/sti" crowd is very "form over function," so i want to be able to prove that "form = function" .

I also want to avoid drawing unwanted "WTF" looks of other subie owners that drive by or i run into on the street. Then i have to explain to them its for eco-modding...then they go into the whole "why did you buy an sti for mpg" yadda yadda yadda...conversation.
