hey guys,
I figured i might as well show off my own car too and join in the fun!
First off, my name is jazz and this is pretty much my first car, shes a 3rd generation subaru legacy wagon Brighton edition.
When i first found her she had been sitting for 4 months on someones drive way and i just had to have her. she was bone stock brighton goodness, well other than the pioneer single din and impreza wheels.
Her name is evangelion and i call her eva for short, i have had her for a year and 3 break downs haha!

1031
here she is soon after i got her
thats right plenty of brighton edition goodies! like front one pots and rear drums, no tach, no options, no fogs, single beams, un-heated manual seats, and no map lights to name a few.

1032
here we are at one of our first meets together

1033
ahh yes, some filters and rain really make faded splotchy paint look ok

1034
oh boy here we go, first major mod!
changed out the single beams for duals and oh man i dont know how i drove without them!
had the wiring backwards for a whole day and didnt realize it either oops

1035
the brighton life was quickly getting stale!
after seeing plenty of features i was missing and the parts i wanted i got myself a parts car whom i named phoenix

ah im a slacker!
time for an update
1194
i got some new rice lights for my interior they look vary nice with the STi seats that i got!
im also slowly working on blacking out the interior, already painted the rear seats!
1195
ahh please dont look at my drums!
recently picked up a set of springs used for a 4th gen, the make is unknown as the guy i got them from had them in his cars trunk when he his car.
the springs have more coils and the wire is thicker than stock, i really hope they are the king springs i have been looking for.
i have yet to do the fronts as im waiting on control arms, i sourced a set of GD 2006 sti control arms that i will be installing with a smaller front sway bar and the thicker springs.
1196
i found a bumper at a junk yard and picked it up (too bad the foglights were already gone), while installing i noticed the inside of my drivers side fender was horribly rusted, turns out most of my fender was bondo so i went back to the yard and pulled off the matching black fender.
i'm to lazy to find foglights so i ordered a set of rigid industries dually with the diffused lights pattern and will be installing them along with the dually spot lights i have

Ah, never mind then. I've got a pair of pre-facelift fogs that someone might be able to clean up. What Civic bumper are you using?

I can dig it. I love bumpers that "aren't supposed to work" myself, as I've got a 3rd gen OB bumper on my '95.

everyone i know is using outback bumpers on their cars and i thought id do something everyone would not approve of :)
i just hope my lights fit in it!

That was my thought. I figured I could fit three options to improve my base BK, the Outback bumper, (Which was being done a lot,) the post-facelift/GT bumper, (Which was being done a lot,) or a JDM bumper (Which I could not afford.) So, I decided that I'd make one fit instead, and went a generation up. And I love it so much.

As for your lights, I think you'll be okay, but you might have trouble with the grille, probably have to trim the center down.
