I have read a whole bunch of reviews on the 2008-2011 impreza OBS and they all say 2 things:
1) Handling is not as aggressive (rear sway should shore that up)
2) The headlights suck

As for #2, I will be purchasing Titanium White bulbs from Luminics for both my low and high beams.
Here's a link:
Titanium White Headlights by Luminics

I once spent months searching for the "best" bulbs to put on a Suzuki 650S I once owned. These seemed best. They have a color output of 5500K, this is as white as white can get w/o looking like those cheap blue aftermarket bulbs. I put these on my bike and I could not believe the transformation. The cleanest, purest white, and nighttime visibility was as good as it could get. The white color is equal to the pure white color from LEDs. The road looked like the signs and lane lines were glowing. Just thought I would share if anybody is looking for a new set of bulbs. I can vouch for these.

The only question is what do I put in my fogs? Do I go with a JDM Yellow? Do I go with a PIAA style yellow? Do I not go with yellow at all?

This is the bike. The main lights are titanium, and the small parkers are a cool-blue LED cluster. I know its hard to get the feel for lights from pictures, but trust me, the OEMs look like candles compared to this.
