[jospgut]

Looks so clean and beautiful!, probably with different rims the wing look better

The 2.5rs wing looks really good and flows well with the leggs. There is a guy (or two ) that has this done and it is........... :smt007. Love that color btw. Time to cut a wrx or sti hood scoop into that L hood!

[chaksq]

I really like the legacy in that color. I actually somewhat what to get my outback painted in that color but I'm not spending money on a paintjob.

the wing just doesnt flow with anything on the car you can tell it wasnt made for that car. find a stock one. as for the scoop please dont do it unless you are actually swapped. there isnt any need for a scoop.

[Okin DaVanh]

(feel free to give me tips, they're very much appreciated.)


Paint the Jambs and do/put whatever you want on it. In the end, you own/drive it so it doesn't matter what we think.... which btw, I think you're off to a good start.

[Huffer]

quick idea of first future mods (feel free to give me tips, they're very much appreciated.)
-suspension
-Tint
-fix spoiler
-rims & tires
-exhaust
-interior

Order fixed. Trust me on this!

Car looks fantastically clean, will not take much to make it look/handle amazing!

[Navi271]

I agree with huffer, I didn't mod my car in that order. Kinda wished I did but money was kinda holding me back.
I like how even the mud flaps are painted to match, that's pretty awesome.

i understand what your saying i kinda feel the same way but i dont have the money right now. not to say i cant have my opinion but if you were in my shoes would you just take it off? or wait untill i can change it.

for the scoop, i just really love the way the GT's look, i think it adds alot to the appearence but yes it would be useless.

Thanks for straightening that up, thats alot of help, although i think my late christmas present will be the tint. im thinking 25% ya?

I thought it was pretty cool too, but since they are made of plastic (i think?) they have started to chip at the bottom. doesnt bother me though i can just get them touched up sometime in the future.

[Okin DaVanh]

Now, I'll say it again. I like the start and I'm interested in seeing another WRB BD modded. But your in for some work.

:smt018 I don't think they were painted correctly... meaning off the car,in a paint with flex additive. They'll flake constantly if not, and you'll be "touching them up" frequently. Don't be surprised if you have to stay with those mudflaps on permanently to keep the body uni-colored.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here.... and rarely do I ever, but I'm gonna say something is wrong.

You get what you pay for.

Where I've worked a car would have to be torn down of it's lights, moldings, roof racks, mudflaps, both bumpers, doors, trunk, hood etc... in order to get a color change or take it somewhere else. You're semi-saved if your inclined. Semi meaning, You have to do the labor yourself, but save some coin in the end.

Your engine bay can be easily cleaned up, masked off and painted (black or WRB) by yourself. Just go about it the right way.

[EJ22E]

Just curious, did the previous old lady who owned this chose to paint it that color? If so she's got good taste.

yeah my brother just got done telling me they flex and flake. no worries though, love the car!

my brothers a mechanic and has done body work so il have alot of help plus 25,000 in tools :shock: :eek:

no haha she was the 1st owner, 2nd had it painted, he was also a subaru lover.

it used to be dark blue.

[subaru13]

Do you happen to live in the Burlington Mt. Vernon area because I am pretty sure that I have seen this car before.

[Dodge Aries K]

That is sexy.

[ESSYMOND]

WRB looks amazing...

Ive seen an STi v7 wing on our BD's and I really enjoy it, I'm looking to doing it sometime. Most likely next year, but as for the 2.5rs wing, 2.5GT did it to his BD, check it out!

[subiepurr]

nah i live in renton/issaqaquah. when did you see it?

il definitely keep that in mind. last night i took her out on some windy mountain roads and dirt roads. man it handles like a dream.

[Zac]

not bad looking, lose the wrx wing right away though!

[dplacencia]

the color looks sweet. But the wing does not go well with the car...

[subiepurr]

just would rather not have 2 holes in my trunk atm. but ya for sure haha.

[subiepurr]

agreed

[subiepurr]

when i take it off, what do i do about the holes?

[Huffer]

Weld them closed, or install a new spoiler that reuses the same bolt holes. Make sure the surface is clean, and seal it with silicone when you install to avoid any rust getting in.

alright cool thank you. yeah i was thinking about swapping spoilers, but i actually dont think it would look bad without one.

[mrpyb]

good to have more people from WA! i'm only about 45min away! let me know when you're ready to buy an exhaust, I have one that would fit your car wonderfully!

[legacy98gt]

nice car, i like the color keep posted on your mods, wat r u gona do next?

[subiepurr]

yeah dude we're like family on this forum lol. where u located?


il be sure to give u a heads up, what do u have in store? haha

[subiepurr]

nice car, i like the color keep posted on your mods, wat r u gona do next?

thanks man, i love the rims on your car. ummm im thinking suspension, but deffinetly change spoiler quick. oh and wrx or sti seats, love the way you sit in them. what do you think? my brothers a mechanic so nothing is really a problem. just lack of experiance on my side. i really like hearing other peoples point of veiw though.

[legacy98gt]

for cheap mods i would do a neon coil pack, a home made grounding kit, gut your muffler or get some washers and put them right before muffler and just bolt it on and if you dont have emission testings gut your cat and get some spark plug non flouers so it wont throw a cel , maybe spray paint some interior parts just to make it the way you like it, its always fun to do stuff to your car it makes you appreciate it more, theres alot of tips on the diy section on this site or on nasioc.com, i think you should change the spoiler to a newer one, the big ones, i think that would look nice or go with a gt spoiler thats wat i have

[Bd4mp-dub]

Please before you lose the wrx wing put some risers on it! i have been dying to see one on a leggy!!! :grin:

yesterday i took off the 2 bolts that connected the muffler. rev sounds like launch control rofl.

yes the emisions are good for 2 years, the interior is perstine, il get some pics up soon. the only thing i dont like is the fake wood grain coverings for the window controlls and the shifter covering. i would like to change my 140 gauge to red or blue.

i will bro,

[httrdd]

That would look look a lot better with spacers. I remember seeing a DIY somewhere how to make your own out of fiber glass. Just dont go too high and look ricey! :wink:

[Bd4mp-dub]

i want to see it with risers. I am either going to get a WRX spoiler with risers or an RS spoiler. But i never seen one with risers before. hard to compare!haha

[subiepurr]

[CorbanDallas]

Haha yeah that would be fun. I need to get my computer up and running so I can start my thread. If you see a ruby mica 96 with white wheels that's me.

[subaru13]

Do you happen to live in the Burlington Mt. Vernon area because I am pretty sure that I have seen this car before.

nah i live in renton/issaqaquah. when did you see it?


I Probably saw it a few months ago but I am positive I saw it cause its not everyday you see a world rally blue bd with a wrx wing

[CorbanDallas]

Could have been the previous owner. The car was for sale like two weeks ago.

[subiepurr]

Haha yeah that would be fun. I need to get my computer up and running so I can start my thread. If you see a ruby mica 96 with white wheels that's me.
