i dont know if you have a fierstone around or or if they do this. i went to firestone and got a lifetime alignment for my subie for $165.00. i thinks its not a bad deal. i could take it in everyday if i wanted to and dont pay for it again ever. also you can use it anywere of there 1500 locations they told me.

Will take more later when it's not so dark out.

[Benfolio]

Yup, it was nice out today. Gave her another wash and headed to a site close to home that I thought would bring out the Subie's character.

Except some of the ruts would have swollowed the car, if not high-sided it.

More progress.... re-wired the JDM projectors now that my headlight wiring came in, took out the fogs and wired up the 'city lights'. Temporarily blacked out the grille, might keep it this way unless I find a killer deal on a better looking grille.
Wheels may be next....

That car is looking pretty good. I love the projectors. Wish I could bring myself to get some but it would be a poor investment for a rally car.

[Benfolio]

Thanks for the compliment!

[Benfolio]

Put in my fog blanks and Outback RSB and went out to play. Should probably wash it. People keep making fun of me. It's been this way for a week.... :smt010

Is there something in my teeth?

This side ain't so bad.

A subaru is supposed to look like that!! haha, ok maybe just rid of the chunks of mud on the front.. otherwise it looks awesome
love the blacked out projectors and grill

[Benfolio]

Heh, finally washed it today! Pulled mud, sticks, and grass out of places I didn't think it could have gone.....

[Benfolio]

Found my trunk leak today. Below the lock cylinder in the trunk someone fixed a dent and below the dent was a rust hole. That someone FILLED WITH BONDO.
Water is coming in there somehow and spilling over the lip.
Which explains the water in the trunk AND the fat lip my trunk is getting on that side.

Well I knew I've been needing a new trunk, but I might have other plans in the works. Will find out tomorrow if there will be a '98 L wagon in my driveway that needs a motor..... my motor..... and other stuff. :grin:

[Benfolio]

Ordered these before I found my wagon, figured I'd at least USE them until I figure out what I'm gonna do with it.

Thanks to DJOrtiz from LegacyGT!

[Benfolio]

Last muddy pics ever! Mostly because I'm not going off-road anymore, but also because my wagon swap is underway!

I promptly washed it when I got to work this morning. Gonna have to wash it a few more times. Don't want to swap stuff off a filthy car.

[Benfolio]

Poor BD :smt010
