Looks spot on, great improvement on the lights front - I don't know why Subaru didn't do an STI option like they did on the bug

Those ducts are very good, I like that a lot and the lights are a massive improvement without the orange indicators. I personally prefer the headlight casing as standard though but thats just me.

when i done my classic headlamps the sealent went all sticky so when i rejoined the glass i placed them back in the over after for another 10 mins and then gave them a little push all over and mine have never leaked since and my car was stored in a yard outside for almost a year just after it was done

Black mastic sealant, any motor factors should have it on the shelf
