Most popular shells are Protoform Mazdaspeed6 (less steering, perhaps better suited to indoors) and LTC-R (more steering, perhaps better suited to outdoors). The HB Subaru Type C is a great looking shell and is popular but I'm not sure how the balance compares to the Protoforms.

Personally I run Blitz bodies, I have the XFR on the car at the moment but plan to try the new TSX (which should have more steering) when the outdoor season starts. The nice thing about Blitz shells is that they are a lot less prone to cracking compared to the Protoforms. They are a bit cheaper too.

Protoform Mazadspeed 6 indoors on carpet
Protoform LTCR / Mazdaspeed 6 outdoors on asphalt, depending on how aggressive you need

I like the blitz WRX shells. The LTC-R is also good but its really delicate if you race indoors the front just smashes away.
