The best moment in this video…you calling the vendor and NOT being able to get a hold of anyone…I realized it’s not only me!!! 🤪

[@tannercrawford4547]

Hey man don't stress over the small stuff, we've been following you for a while and know you'll have these issues fixed in no time. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend brother.

[@Ethantherobloxanimator2]

Hey dude just an appreciation comment, I’ve been watching you for quite a while now. I cant help but just love to watch your video’s. Your such an easy guy to watch and enjoy the videos. The amount you put into the channel is amazing. Also the amount you can do to your cars is nuts, from engine rebuilds to powder coating to resprays and also wrapping. Skills you have make’s me jealous lol. Keep doing your thing Devin. We all appreciate the videos i just zone out of real life stuff and enjoy the content. Big love

[@jpace9004]

I just got a 2013 STI, and I can't tell you how happy I am. Devin & Bobbi you guy's freaking rock!!!

[@frankoholic7815]

On the 18 plus bumper conversion You can use 18 plus WRX fog light bezels and retain the fog lights and turn signals from the early STI

[@ENDLESSPOSSIBILITIESAUTO]

You can add the Diode Dynamics headlight switchback C lights boars to retain the front turn signals

[@KAnE3o1]

Or the WRX Bezels which have the turn signal holes.

[@Lego9215]

I bought a used 2018 wrx bumper and swapped it on my 15 sti to make it fit my s209 widebody olm kit fits perfectly 🥰

[@Madvillian83]

Awesome content as always, the sti is coming along nicely can’t wait to own one myself keep up the great work devin respect

[@Fk8_Theory]

The prep IS the paint job.

[@no_lft_shft]

Absolute quality. Love the uploads brother.

[@gregprevite8548]

That bumper looks damn good. This channel quickly becoming one of my favorites.

[@ilj5000]

Thank you for doing the bumper swap! Wanted to know how easy it is to go from old to newer style.

[@DON-xt6qu]

Fam you a monster. You be workin through any pain. 😂 I wanted to give you eye drops. Love fam.

[@Socaldude]

Got my mystery box ordered! Was there at 11 am and ordered before 11:03! Can't wait for it!

[@Socaldude]

@@darthassassin2479 yes I did. Probably 30 seconds after the payment processed.

[@Socaldude]

@@darthassassin2479 no problem.

[@tradeMark182]

I dig the 20+ min videos so much its a banger

[@hershellmackay716]

Watching from SOUTH AFRICA🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 never missed an upload . Top content

[@mattrahm9418]

they sell a little cover for that hole. the emblem mount sits higher. that hole is there for the cvt wrx with eyesight for a front camera. i ran into that problem when i did mine

[@justinlucero6652]

It looks nice but I like the fog lights on it it gives it more characters to the subi

[@TheOriginalSpawn]

You’ll get it together 💯🔥👌🏽

[@ratspeedgarage]

Loving the Subaru content 😻

[@LymaxVisuals]

I’ve got one waiting to put on, need to colour match from Rally Blue to Metallic Grey first

[@zaylanrevz4603]

Devin! If you ever have raw plastic pieces you can spray isopropyl out of your paint gun onto the pieces to eliminate the static charge

[@jeffjackson9483]

Bro, that blow up paint booth is cool AF, pretty awesome watching the luv you put into the work my G!! #Gang 🔥🔥💪🏽🤘🏽💯

[@nathanwilliam1922]

Devilibiss makes a anti static wipe you use before you paint works pretty good

[@damionhloska5356]

You should use a scuff paste to prep raw oem bumpers until it stops beading off with water. There’s a chemical release agent that you need to remove by doing that. Just scuffing it will flake off and you’ll be spending an hour blowing off all the paint.

[@KennyJ540]

And trapped all the plastic oils by using epoxy primer. Looks ok now, but his paint job will fail eventually. Plastic should never be primed.

[@alexandrepagaime4750]

GREAT JOB BRO... HUGS FROM PORTUGAL

[@DanielGarcia-hq9dp]

i thought you got a completely different warehouse in a different spot but now have that whole building. that’s sick and i bet convenient

[@dennissterner3350]

Looks good

[@Williams1505]

Paint them headlights baby!!

[@user-qw2ve1ev4n]

Hi. If you want perfect, than sand bunmp. Make it like a piece egg. Like mirror. Than you be satisfied) i don't know this word up in English, it's when you sandpaper and after you take some putty(filler, coating) after sand like 200-400-600-800. Thats what we do in Russia shops

[@andrewwilbanks5326]

You should keep 6 or 8 sandbags in the shop and just place them around the edges inside the booth once you blow it up. Then you dont have to worry about tying them to anything. It'll hold it down, it just may sway a little during really high winds.

[@bobthebuilder8223]

B is for build throws water on the floor before painting

[@bschoenborn]

Vasyn FTW

[@dogstylez585]

You should do a nice clean clear wrap

[@zionofc]

boys working i didn’t even finish last vid when got notified of this one

[@irvingtorres5316]

Yess new filtere and put more fans inside the booth in front of the fans so it would help take out the paint in the air..

[@bassmanbn]

blinker and fog light delete? 2015->2018 swap?

[@Mr_Ja3]

15-17 whack??? I happen to prefer the 15-17 bumper over the 18-21. I prefer looking like a Subie over an EVO! I guess you being an EVO guy make sense. lol

[@professorlife1619]

Can see the difference between bumper and hood, fenders!

[@kevinsantiago503]

You should look into the oem or jdm aero splashguards... they're sick I had them on my wrx back when I had 1

[@chipit1145]

what a beauty 😎

[@GSekong]

oem lip looks the best

[@FernandoJQuevedo]

Talk about getting lucky!!!! Got to order the mystery box!! Because my dad fat body is 2x 🤣🤣🤣🤣 everything else was sold out lol

[@spoopdiewoopdie8092]

So mad I didn’t get a chance to buy it !!! Lol I was trying to put my motor in and realized I never ordered my flywheel to crank bolts. Spent 1 1/2 hours tryna find bolts. Ordered from the dealer and import image to see who gets here first hahaha

[@Day1dayy]

You should add fan vents like how Taylor ray just did on his corvette or any Drifter does to the car

[@SPQR_GuiGui]

Chargespeed carbon front grill…?🤔😍

[@Silbaru]

On to the next Sti Devin! Aha

[@denniskonko2555]

There’s also different style rear spats that are paint matched

[@SofiaSclafani]

You could always take the tow hook cover from the other sti since you’re not rebuilding that yet and not paint another one

[@Pharowave]

The hole in the grille is for the camera on the CVT or something , you can order part sub91122VA090 as a oem cover for that hole, Love the videos, cheers from Canada

[@Socaldude]

Camera works for either transmission. But your rite about the oem camera cover.

[@matheus5890]

Devin, put the playlist of the songs on the videos please. Is soo good songs

[@ianholmquist8492]

I like the 15-17 factory bumper better than the 18-21

[@TheKwking]

Large is sold out. Thats a bummer. I missed it

[@Jonny_trans]

2020s have the raised fog grills that look a little more aggressive

[@randomthing4639]

Chill broo

[@davidkabwesimwinga1957]

Watching from 🇿🇲 Zambia...

[@germ_trdz]

The drop sold out already 🥲

[@Jonny_trans]

You can buy those caps pre painted from the dealer so no worry there

[@benpatterson8924]

Going to have a massive HYPER FLASHING indicator issue now also. Will need to swap out the bezzles or the headlights. How do I know? I did the exact swap on mine

[@ryanwahlstrom2227]

Almost all basecoats call for a certain shade of primer, it should say on the can. The primer color or shade can throw off the topcoat color even if using the same batch of tcopcoat on all parts. This may be the problem to your matching. Sometimes the factory uses multiple primer shades depending on time when the cars were built. Gm was and still are notorious to switching the primer colors between years Wich led to different shades of colors. I wanna see a fade wrap with all that said lol

[@LymaxVisuals]

I’m in a VA club with 160 members VA only, half the people in the group seem to prefer the 2015-18 front bumper over that new one, myself, I can’t choose between the two. I like them both.

[@KAnE3o1]

2018 is the new one...lol. You mean 2015-2017.

[@LymaxVisuals]

@@KAnE3o1 good job

[@benwinters7147]

is removing the indicators legal or do you have a plan?? nice mod none the less👍

[@kizashikaze9066]

I may be the only person who prefers the 15-17 bumper over the 18+!

[@mintieness4987]

What are you going to do about the missing turn signals though?

[@subarufreakdd]

Next time. Soft scuffing pad p800 to remove the dirt. Maybe spray some colour and then just clear

[@Junior-nh9tq]

What printer is that that you use for the tape? Would love one for my business.

[@speedxtc]

I wanna get the 18+ bumper for my 2017 wrx too!!😭😭

[@AWD_T]

That’s a nice upgrade. Way more aggressive. Me like eat!

[@fathercube]

That bumper looks so aggressive meaning try and catch this nice job bro

[@SonikJesus]

Why didn’t you get the 20+ fog bezels? They look a lot less plastic-y.

[@borkle8739]

I LOVE LEANNNNNNNN I LOVEEEE LLEEEAAAANNNN

[@lindaniayanda313]

Love the bumper swap, but you deleted the fog lights

[@williambell3531]

Can you send merch to New Zealand?

[@andyhoang3778]

How much does the paint and material cost for this project?

[@victorflores4718]

What about the turn signals bro?!

[@orboffire]

you dont need the antistatic gun, go for a alcoholic antistatic cleaner instead that u spray on and wipe off and there is no more static on ur parts

[@ryanmotz664]

Can I buy the old bumper off of you? I live in Spokane and am rebuilding a wrecked front end 2015.

[@jesustrujilloherrera356]

Tío tu coche está guapísimo regalamelo tío 🤭😂🔥viaja a canaria ay buenas carreteras 😍🇮🇨🇮🇨🤙🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@christianp3161]

Install the front camera.

[@alberto5731]

How much si the cost the Evo gray 6

[@dennissmith6246]

Way better bumper tbh

[@andrewfurtado4875]

Get 25 Lb sandbags for each corner… lol you just said it in the video

[@exor1238]

GG couldn’t buy the mystery box. Helping family to move :/ sad

[@thewatsonian8111]

If the paint is soft, why don’t you pop them in the oven on low for a bit?

[@firdaustalukder3328]

Guys what is the anti static gun

[@leeit2me]

I like the original better. it has the fog lights. and plus it's the OEM look.

[@rafgarciaa]

medium out of stock 🥲🥲🥲

[@TDT0188]

screw the tow hook cover, just use a license plate relocate kit lol

[@stevendurbin9006]

Sell me the booth and upgrade.. win win lol

[@gouthams7825]

evo 4 build

[@izackproduction6471]

Hey man

[@76mestizo]

You need an extractor fan my dude

[@jessemessenger7521]

Needs a Jdm grill.

[@AllAspects710]

Fisheyes only come from Preping NOT Sand paper.

[@tradeMark182]

I just wanna say Devin never did a widebody sti apart from SUS and it was a shiitty kit

[@sg1893]

You forgot to order the fog covers with turn and fog holes instead

[@shanekdiesel]

Why can't you use concrete Blocks in the corners of the booth. Just grab 4-6 of them. And done.

[@MegaGames80]

sometimes i think subaru just ignores my calls

[@okthen8445]

There’s a cover for that hole on the grill. It’s meant for a sensor/camera on some other models. It’s crazy how much these KZbinrs modify cars yet know nothing about them at the same time.

[@islandbwoytaekwondo6545]

Wish I was up there were you at you could help me with my Subie bro nice job as always nobody is perfect we all make mistakes that’s how we learn
