I tried it, but it doesn't think my STI is a Subaru. :(

Nick Koan 2010-05-26 08:58 AM

Cool! Got mine coming.

MattR 2010-05-26 09:29 AM

I'm getting a gardening one!

sperry 2010-05-26 09:48 AM

Apparently, the SVX doesn't have a recognized Subaru VIN. F you too Subaru! :unamused:

Jeikun 2010-05-26 09:50 AM

that's pretty sweet actually. I'll have to look into getting one for my 08 2.5 and 06 FXT.

scootyc 2010-05-26 10:12 AM

That stinks for the vin's that dont work. Can always give 'em a call.

And you have to enter a Baja vin for the rainbow, or so i've heard. :)

cody 2010-05-26 12:57 PM

The "Choice of Lifestyle Icon" makes me LOL.

sti deede 2010-05-26 03:46 PM

Damnit. It doesn't recognize the Forester either, looks like I'll have to call. :(

MattR 2010-05-26 03:50 PM

How can they have "choice in Lifestyle" and not recognize Foresters? (no offence) :lol:

good point.

MattR 2010-05-26 07:25 PM

Well, the 04 worked, but the 07 did not.

khail19 2010-05-26 07:42 PM

My VIN isn't recognized either. Kind of lame.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-05-26 08:01 PM

Mine didn't work either. Guess I will have to walk down the street and get another VIN.

Kevin M 2010-06-04 02:23 PM

The website is working now if any of you still want to order yours.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-04 03:28 PM

Scott, thank you for posting this.

van 2010-06-04 04:47 PM

Sweet, it recognized my 93 impreza. Gonna order a "Choice in Lifestyle" for my wifes Forester in a second (she loves rainbows!).
Too bad there isn't one for cooking your family dinner.

You don't have to blame it on your wife.

khail19 2010-06-04 06:11 PM

It recognized my VIN now, thanks for posting!

05widesti 2010-06-05 07:07 AM

Mines still not working. I guess I'll have to call.

Dean 2010-06-05 06:32 PM

Mine is working now as well. Thanks

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-07 10:14 AM

i see what you did there.

szucchet 2010-06-10 06:11 PM

I did mine and my my moms. I did the mechanical (since I am a mechanic in training) and 4th subaru owner, for my mom I go the animals because she is always taking her doggie all over the place

Ms Heatha 2010-06-11 09:37 AM

They didn't recognize my VIN. But it was really easy when I called. It was almost easier ordering over the phone, and you get to talk with a real person right from the get go!

You can get more than one add-on, so you can add the snow sports, racing, etc...

Nick Koan 2010-06-11 12:53 PM

Yeah, I ordered 6 of them I think. I'll leave it up to the reader to decide which ones they were.

6 rainbows? ...damn you're gay.

IB another spin off thread.

Nick Koan 2010-06-11 01:08 PM

Actually, 3 rainbows and 3 "love" hearts.

dknv 2010-06-13 07:44 PM

Is everyone sure this doesn't put you on some 'list'? I started filling out the form, then got paranoid and exited.

Kevin M 2010-06-13 07:49 PM

I'm reasonably sure it will get us all some junk mail from Subaru. I'm okay with that.

Nick Koan 2010-06-13 07:52 PM

I was at first, but it's linked to from Subaru's site. Which means, you're probably getting on a list, but at least it's Subaru and not some random Internet person.

scootyc 2010-06-21 07:42 AM

Well, i got mine sometime over the weekend. I'll see how long this thing will last until the novelty wears off. Its kind of cool, but you def get what you pay for.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-24 07:19 PM

I got mine too and I think it looks pretty sweet. I don't know if I will put it on my car simply because I don't think it will stand up to the elements very well.

bigrobwoot 2010-06-24 09:16 PM

Joel, what did you get?

moose 2010-06-25 10:52 PM

It is a shame they don't have a monster truck life style icon for you Joel. It would really fit your car. lol

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-25 11:18 PM

I just put my suspension on tonight actually. How is your car running? Oh... yeah, that's right.

moose 2010-06-26 01:28 PM

Zing!! It will actually be fixed in the next few days by the way.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-26 01:38 PM

That is pretty awesome news. New engine?

moose 2010-06-26 02:41 PM

Yup. New engine waiting to go in.

100_Percent_Juice 2010-06-26 03:28 PM

It will be awesome to get that thing back on the road. Try not to murder it this time. haha

moose 2010-06-26 03:36 PM

Yeah I agree. I will try not to... lol

Nick Koan 2010-07-01 09:45 PM

Well, mine showed up today. I put them on my roof rack fairing, so we'll see how long that lasts.

GusGus91 2010-07-01 09:49 PM

^Pic's nick?

Nick Koan 2010-07-01 09:52 PM

Yeah, not the greatest pics, but they show off the badge.

Looks good. Is it the backing that might not hold up?

The backing actually looks decent. It's 3M automotive quality tape, but I'm worried that I have it on my car at a point that has higher wind velocity than where they were expecting it to be.

Build quality isn't bad for (especially for the price) but may not last years and years.
