Last night my bro--Maddie08--and I installed my recently-purchased Primitive skid plates. Primitive (WRX - STi) offers 2 types of "full armor" skid plates: 1/8" and 3/8". I went with the former, what they call "street" armor. The full armor simply means front and rear skid plates. I figured since I won't actually be off-roading my STI Limited, the 1/8" was the logical choice.

All in all, very high-quality stuff. I may post pics later, if folks are interested. I've decided not to replace the oem limited front lip and to keep the WRX look--mostly b/c I'm tired of driving my STI like it's a supermodel. With the skid plates and no front lip spoiler, I can now drive around in all weather and treat it like a proper Subaru. It will also come in handy when I move to a snowy and mountainous climate

Anyway, thought I would share. If anyone is considering skid plates--go Primitive.
