I used 99SUS SFD as an example. Will these bumpers swap with no fitment problems? Preferably I just want to swap my 99 2.5GT rear bumper for a SUS bumper since mine needs paint in the future and the SUS bumpers look better with the slotted bumper skirt. I would match the paint, Tell me what you think.

I'm going to say yes because the fronts (SUS/Outback vs. GT) are the same where the grill dips down. And the rear should be the same also.

Thanks for the proof of the front bumper, that looks good. I might have to swap out both front and rear now. Keeping my eyes open for a part-out or a SUS in a junk yard... Thanks.

Any other pics of this swap?

Besides that fella, thres one other swapped leggie out there. (On nasioc at least :smt005 ) I personally didnt like the colour matching on our gen 2s so I asked my paint shop to keep the unpainted section unpainted. I picked mine up from a salvage yard for 125 with bumper beam and the stock fogs.

This is an Outback, but still sick none the less.

Couldnt have said it better :


LOVE the front bumper !!
love the look but i´ve never been a fan of those 16" usdm wrx wheels :smile:

but with the cheapest one I could find, at 700$ shipped before paint, I figured the outback front was a nice middle road.I still get my huge ass fogs :grin: and it doesnt draw as much attention as the TK would.

For wheels next Im thinking of either Gen3 Blitzens or those UK### wheels. I was told the seats were from a 96 GT-B and they came from Japan of course :grin: .
