What's /o/'s favorite front end on the second-generation Subaru Imprezas? I think they all look pretty good but am curious to hear what my fellow shitboxers and Miatafags think.

'02 WRX wagon owner here. I prefer the '06-'07 "hawk eye" front end. But, I don't feel like the body goes as well with it than the '02-'05.

Bugeye looks silly, hawkeye makes the front look weirdly squished. Therefore blobeye best.

Bugeye fits the car the best
Hawkeye looks the coolest
Blobeye matches the tail lights

Tbh the second gen isn't a bad looking car with either front end, but personally the bugeye is my favorite

Bugeye reminds me of qt twingo

Used to love the Hawkeye but starting to like the blobeye more. Dont like the bugeye at all. But I prefer meaneye and stinkeye to all.

>>16394547
Blobeye>Meaneye>Bugeye>Stinkeye>Hawkeye>Evoeye

As someone who has spent more time in Subarus than any other brand, I have often wondered if Subaru engineers know that everyone thinks Subarus are ugly but buys them anyway as a function>form purchase so they don't give a fuck when they are designing them.
>>
>>16395325
I mean I've generally preferred the Evo styling to Impreza's but I think both are decent looking cars, at least up until post-Hawkeye Imprezas and post-8 Evos, as real-world rally-lites.

Unpopular opinion: I think both look like ass without their respective STI/Evo wing.
>>
>>16395325
I think they're beautiful except for the Hawk tbqhwyrn famalam

>>16395339
Agreed.

At least here in Burgerland:

For sedans:
Wingless > WRX Wing >>>>> STi garbage wing

For wagons, the small spoiler looks kinda bad on the hatch, but it's much harder to swap hatches/plug those holes, so I tolerate it.

Hawk > Bug > Blob

Hawk eye is smartest, but the 2.5 STI is objectively worse than the 2.0 STI

Wish it was easier to remove this garbage without leaving huge holes for rain and shit to enter the hatch.

Then again, I also wish the hood scoop could be done away with. It's hard to make a WRX look stealthy because literally all the normal Imprezas have hood scoops and shit too.

Either do a proper projector retrofit, or stick with OEM. Nothing makes me cringe harder than seeing a blobeye with rice lights installed.
