96 Legacy Sedan W/ Outback Bumper

[Baddog]

I had a little fender bender and decided to get a different bumper since the L bumper is so bland. I will be color matching the top section of the bumper to the car and the lower part black. I need to re-adjust the passenger side fog light (hella 500's)

Let me know what you guys think.

Sorry for the cell phone pics. Two top pictures are with the OB Grille. Other two are my meshed L grille.

I like it! It will look even better once you get it matched.

looks good, either match the bumper like csweston said or go extreme and flat black the bottom trim around the whole car

did everything just bolt right in? did you have to change the bumper beam? did the hella's just bolt right in? i'm thinking about doing this to my 96. do you have any close up pics of the car with the smaller 96 grill because i like that grill more and want to see how it looks with it.

looks good. Def. need to paint the bumper. Mike everything is a direct bolt on nothing is different on the bumpers.

I say keep it black!

I had to change the beam as the stock L beam didn't work for me. The Hella 500's were pretty easy to mount. Just drill holes into the plastic part of the bumper beam. The wiring took me the longest.

do you happen to know if any of the wireing is there to connect the outback lights? i'm gonna swap a outback bumper and outback lights onto my legacy. i need to find out what i have to do to wire them up

I really like that. Post more pics when you get it painted.

this post make my wife want this bumper on her 96 legacy. so to make her happy i swaped one on. i made my own wiring harness with relay for the fogs and i used a factory outback dash switch to operate them. i got pics since everyone always wants pics
