I'm new to legacys, and am trying to find some of the JDM clear taillights for my wagon. It seems that the only way to get them is to find actual OEM ones off of Japanese or euro vehicles?

My other car is an M3, and for headlights and taillights etc.. there are a bunch of companies who make replicas of pretty much every euro part, and are decently cheap. Is there not a company that does this for the JDM taillights?

Also, will the center garnish from a sedan fit a wagon?

yep you will have to find some OEM ones from a EDM/JDM car. i've had good luck looking on ebay.co.uk for the tail lights, if you can convince them to ship back to america.

nobody makes any aftermarket tail lights for Subarus that are any good. there are altezzas and crap like that, but they all looking terrible. no oem replicas for sure.

EDIT: and no the sedan tails will not fit on a wagon (and vice versa)

I'm going to say no.

I don't know of anyone that makes replicas.

The center garnish does not fit on the reason that the trunk space where the plates go on Is smaller for the JDM car.

There is no difference in fitment between jdm and usdm cars, but between sedan and wagon

This is not true, the JDM BD garnish will not fit the USDM BD trunk.

Every other model should swap just fine.

Why are you guys posting about sedan -> sedan fitment?

Excerpt from first post:

Elislider's response:

Since OP was asking about wagons, I'd say this answer sufficed.
