I live in Fairfax Count, specifically Springfield.

Ever heard of Annendale? I grew up there.

Anyway, you're car is freaking immaculate! Any plans?

Annandale is really close to where I live. The only plans I have for now is the JDM light ... set I'd guess you call it.

Some guy at my school (Universal Technical Institute) has an LGT and is selling some new in box H&R springs. I'm going to offer $200. Does anyone have these installed?

There's a few guys here running H&Rs, I think. Are you getting the JDM tail lights? Those and the suspension drop will look totally boss.

Several people have them, in combination with AGX struts, and like them. A set of JDM projector headlamps and JDM taillights would be cool, subtle mods.

I lived right at the intersection of I-66 and rt50 in fairfax, and my buddy's dad owns springfield VW so I was down that way a good bit.

Springfield VW is like 5 minutes from my house ...

I need to wait for my tax returns to come in. Then I'll have to decide between some of the lights or the springs.

Is it just me, or are the front and rear bumper lips painted?

Looks slick - much nicer than mine. :)

Thanks. I haven't noticed if they are painted, but they look like it. The side skirts, on the other hand, don't just from these pictures.

They came like that stock on the Limiteds, I believe.

Yes, they are painted. Just like my 99 LGT Limited, hes got the gold / silver rims, and the painted lips! Nice car man! Only thing i wonder about mine is.. where the HELL did my 30th anniversary sticker go! If you ever decide to debadge your's.. let me know, because i dont know anywhere else i can get one of these stickers! haha. Or at least take a nice big picture of it for me, so maybe i can have someone make me one?

Great looking car though man! :cool:

There is more then one on your car? Yea.. a big pic would be awesome.. because i dont know where i could get the sticker from! On my other 99 LGT Limited, it had the sticker.. and for some reason my new one doesnt.. and i miss it! haha. I wish i could find a new set of the limited rims too.. they are nice!

Have you tried getting one from the dealership? I guarantee they can get one for you... body shops have to have access to all the original badging.

Hmm, interesting. I wonder if they can.. i havent asked them, i've mostly just been looking online. I think I might have to give them a call.. i just figured they wouldnt, since its from an older car.

edit: called the stealership.. damn, they want $25 for one.. maybe i'll try to hit up the guy on the board who works for subaru.. see what he can get them for! i loved my badge tho! haha.

If you can take that pic for me tho, that would be great.. also maybe get a shot from a few feet away as well.. so if i do ender up getting one, i will know where to place it approximately! Thanks!

Until you get the slightest hint of salt...then they're very dirty.

LOL seriously. My car looked HORRIBLE after all the snow storms. It finally got washed since it's nice and warm out now.

Welcome! Nice clean ride. Are those pinstripes taped or painted?
