Yes. AND STOP SHOUTING AT US.

Don't know where you can buy one - you'd have to import it from JDM-land.

i have looked tokio more thne u think and im still pulling at straws. i have asked rallitek, jdm imports and man other other shops that ship jdm parts over and im still unable to find something. i think im either gonna need an imprezza kit or just custom fabbed everything.

well, in that case, gotturbo, i know that chargespeed japan offers some overfenders for the bd and a wide-body for the gc8. whether or not the gc8 will fit to a bd/bg i dont know.

i do know the overfenders fit nice. and they also come in chrome for you sick-o's.

There is a GC8 wide kit available in the UK, its a copy of the 22B, now given that its available in a 2 and 4 door version I'm fairly sure it'll work on a Leggy.

There is another option, build or should I say weld your own kit, this is something which I'm going to be looking at later this year, I don't think it will be overly difficult especially as I'm going to sort of follow the late model STi fender shapes.

I was just looking for that picture to post it, thats only front fenders with rears flared by like rolling them. Personally I dont like the fronts because they remove the body line from the car. I like the guy on here who welded on the flares from the wrx, I think thats the look to go with.
Peace,

thanks man :) yea i didn't feel comfortable shoving a bunch of cheese (bondo/fireglass) all over my car...would crack eventually...i live in Canada where the temp goes HOT in the summer and COLD as hell in the winter...so metal was the way to go!

This would be an appropriate thread to post the weld-on WRX pics.

I've thought of maybe using Mk II Supra P-type or Celica GT-S fender flares on my Outback since they connect fairly simply, the Legacy's wheel cutouts are HUGE, and those cars are plentiful in junkyards.

Want a bodykit? Go hang out with the kiddies on Nabisco. Legacy owners are more cultured than them.

yeah, this isn't the worst. There was a guy acting like he needed a bodykit as if he needed a new timing belt on his interference engine.

^you talking about me? :lol:

I'm all for bodykits if they add something functional to the car, such as ducting to heat exchangers, downforce, or fitment of bigger wheels and tires.

IMHO, Anything else is just rice.

[Wiscon_Mark]

no, not at all Mranlet.
