Yea I know, you have all seen this STi on HF before. But these pictures just really caught my eye because it really shows how dope his fitment is. For those who have never seen this STi, it is owned by Abbitt Wilkerson from WA. Some of you may have seen his film work from AWFILMS (be sure to check him out on Vimeo). He is still in high school and DDs this thing everyday. I wish I had such a dope ride in high school.
Thanks for reppin Fatlace/HF with the Illest plate frame Abbitt. Stay fresh in WA.
wa represent! now this is how a car is suppose to look like. none of that wack camber stuff.
shits clean as a whistle and still in HS??
im sure he worked his ass off for this i hope …
Damn right his fitment is dope. Just shows that with proper fitment any car will look good. I just wish I could make my ride look as dope and get on HF. =(
Damn!
I’m from WA and never seen this car before.
Lots of dope cars in the PNW!
Props for still being in high school if he payed for all that himself.. I’m in highschool and I’ll probably never own a car as fresh as that.
haha
best stance I’ve seen on an sti.
Wow highschool? Lucky guy!
Would love to see this car without the wing.
Abbitt has a wingless trunk in paint right now
It’s nice to see a high school kid with a head on their shoulders when it comes to cars. Very nice!
Not near enough bad fitting replica 1997 aero to be a high school car. I dig.
I mean shit I got a CRX Si when I was in high school with some upgrades too, but, compared to this my car wasn’t shit (but I still loved it). Super clean STI.
i wish i had rich parents so i can build cars like these.
i wish i was a dick so i could leave comments like these.
dope sti
Its clean but played out now theres too many people with those wheels and fitment in the subaru community.
he paid for it himself
The kid works two jobs ( sticker maker and works for a golf course ) sold his old GC ( which had great fitment ) for this car. Stance is crazy awesome Abbitt
I wish my parents bought me everything too
jealous 17 year old here with no car….
This kid totally deserves this car when i heard how he got it. Im glad he isnt like most “rich” kids and got a totally lame car or riced it out.
so yeah i get this shit all the time with people telling me a didnt buy anythign and parents pay for everything…. well thats wrong. my parents dont pay for anything on the car.
i sold my old rs that we got for $1500 and i came out with about $9k after i was done parting it out and put it down on this car. I got this car for $14k and it is a clean title and all just has a lil more miles than a lot but it was a good deal. I put the downpayment down and i am now pay the car off monthly.
you would be surprised by how much money i make off stickers. they are vinyls so they are more expensive. i cut stickers for businesses like the hours and i am the official sticker guy on WFC and that comes to add up to some dollars.
and the golf course is the golf course. good tip money and minimum wage haha
trunk and some other goodies are in paint right now/
also most of this cars parts is paid for with sticker money because its in paypal and some paychecks.
it takes awhile to save up for the stuff but usually i get things for cheap and also will save up for awhile or buy something and wait to put it on.
such an awesome car. i’m also 17 and from WA and my hs parking lot is full of neon civics on 22’s with tear vinyls and spray can jobs.
i take that back, i just remembered an extremely rich son of a dentist just got a white sti with 20k miles. he’s already sent three shots of nos through it and sawed off his exhaust after the cat so it would “sound cool”. actually in history a few days ago i heard him bragging to some of his friends how he was going really fast and accidentally shifted from 5th to 2nd and his car made a cool loud sound.
any info on the specs of the tires?

Abbitt,
very clean car and that’s quite an accomplishment to work hard and have a car like that!
Mind if I ask what the wheel sizing and offsets, tires too?
WFC represent to the fullest!!! Thanks for the stickers Hyphy!!!
I worked 40+ hours a week in high school and all I could afford was my ‘88 RX-7, lol. I’m sure the rents bought the car for him, which is a bit crazy for someone in highschool to own, but if he’s paying for the parts, I can only semi-hate
nah i bought it but i make monthly payments so yeah
props on working hard. golf courses make bank a buddy of mine bought an S2000 working on a golf course in HS. and paid insurance on it as well.
i always wasted my money on beer in HS. haha
looks great!
fkn clean dude… mad props
its pretty clean but playeddd outtt, nice try though
Looks sick Abbitt. Going to cruise down to XXX on sunday? would love to check it out in person. Haven’t seen you or walker around in a long time.
ahh damn travvy i would. Zach asked me if i was going but ill be in california cause im going down to film formula d irwandale!
wowow, i remember your old 2.5rs. both cars are ballin outrageous. where are you in WA? im in east seattle and just graduated last june but damn.. i could only afford to slam an old beetle during school hahaa. good work man.
Clean….. Clean…..
