SUBTLE: 1" Lift Kits for your (98-07) Impreza and (98-08) Forester!!!

Did you see the bull sheet on DirtyImpreza.com? Some of the users got really butt hurt because they made a lift kit that looked like jackson rallys, lift kits can only look so different. Anywho, they handled it really well and it would be awesome to get them on here!

 
With no patent, anyone can make something just like it. I mean how much different can you make something like that?

In fact, stick a set in my hand and I can get some made right away.

 
Come on fella's, lets not only tell bits and pieces of the story here....

The JR + Subtle crap show on Dirty Impreza was twofold: Subtle had the same design as JR, alright fine who cares. Second problem, which I felt was the bigger one, was people didn't like Subtle trying to undercut a local guy. Jackson Rally contributes to DI, has run a car with big Dirty Impreza banners, and is part of the scene. Who ever was running the Subtle account was abrasive in my opinion, in response to the DI members.

Analogy time: WRXnate runs Mainely Subaru's and is a good guy who contributes to the community. He also sells custom made shift knobs. Now imagine some out of state guy/company registers an account on Mainely, posts a thread saying "Hey, I make custom shift knobs", and it turns out they're very similar to WRXnate's and priced 5 bucks cheaper and publicly asking for vendor status. Would you guys embrace this new company, saying business is business, or tell the guy to go pound sand? Hope this puts things in perspective better as to the DI community's reaction.

JR and Subtle are "in talks" now, that's the latest I've read.

Yes I love Jackson Rally, but the problem was that he wasn't making any more kits. He was really backed up in the shop and couldn't make any, and tons of people wanted them.

This is true, shoulda added it to my post. I just wanted folks to know that the DI folks had a reason they flipped on the guy.

 
This all could have been avoided if you guys would just wash your cars. Then there wouldn't be any Dirty Imprezas.

Being the frugal sensitive guy I am, I'd stick with the local guy, but only after I've heard positive reports of product. But we're getting into politics. Capitalism. Next we'll see them on eBay for 100 bucks less from China, and right or wrong ..people will buy them.

 
JNA carries these also if anyone is looking. Support your local site sponsor, they keep this place running.
