Well, the Tommy Kaira Pro R's that I wanted were not the right size, had bubbles in the paint and the labels were peeling off, and the Rota Tokyo replica's aren't made anymore, along with the Zerosports lip :-( So I had to make a few changes! Worked for the best, and saved a bit more money out of it :grin:
17x8, +38mm

New lip, more understated, but does the job :smile:

The HKS Hipermax LS+ suspension went in like butta! Always amazed at how well HKS products work and perform. Also picked up some other JDM goodies!

That's the lip that I would like to get, can't wait to see pictures of your car once you got it all installed. Keep up the great progress!!!

Got the wheels on today, hopefully will get the lip on next week and do a wash and wax once the weather clears. Going to do some shots of the interior too. I always love working on the Legacy :smt023
Can't wait to see the pics...
What model is this lip exactly? ThanksQuote:

Widebody... Now you really got my attention...
Quick question, are the rear spats a direct bolt on or was there some force used to get the holes to line up? Thanks for the info on the lip and can't wait to see pictures of it on the car... Thanks
most if not all JDM Legacies have a red hazard switch. ppl say it is s401 to get the price jackedup.Quote:

Where did you get those Mine's Parts? Ebay?
They were full bolt on, holes lined up on the stock bumper no problem :)Quote:

I wasn't able to take pics of the finished interior or the exterior after the wax, had too much to get done before I flew out for work. But the wheels look perfect....just need some brembo's under them :wink: Pics will have to wait a month now :-(
Were any changes made to your bumper when you switched to the 03-04 bumper???
Hey Nice lip!
Any info on that?
That looks sweet, and I need one.

any interior pics?
Sorry, got everything finished and then had to fly out for work quite some time ago and I didn't get to take any pics. I love love love the interior now, I'll be driving it out to California in early November hopefully. One of the HKS dampers was leaking, so I sent it into HKS USA for an overhaul....which is pretty much the reason why I went with the HKS suspension instead of keeping with the Silkroad coilovers, I can have the dampers re-valved and repaired stateside :grin:
My thoughts right now are to have the car either refinished or repainted as I had put a good coat of wax on the car before I left and it didn't really help it out that much. At the same time or beforehand I will have those annoying fenders professionally rolled and pulled so I can get some better meat on those rims. Being that I will be moving to the L.A. area there will be a better ability to both maintain the car and further modify it to my specifications. Looking forward to the future with this car :smile:
Do you have a picture of the Spec B lip on the car??? Really want to see how it turned out, thanks.
If he doesn't get any pictures soon i might beat him... I ordered mine on ebay a couple days ago having no idea someone else already attempted this Lip. This front lip i sware fits on anything it seams like, 00 RS, 02-03 bugeye(with slight mod trimming), made for the 04-05, fits the 06-07,... and am sure other vehicles. Mines going on a Outback Bumper so we will see how it looks.
I believe this lip that 00legacy is using is different from what you are getting, his is for the JDM Legacy (05-07) bumper... But then again it could all be the same haha. I hope he gets some pictures of it, but look forward to seeing yours as well. ThanksQuote:

I was actually thinking the other day of picking up a BG Legacy sedan, I always liked the look of those, plus suspension components are more swappable between the Impreza and that year of Legacy. We'll see though, I'm having plenty of fun with this one Legacy so far.
I picked up a set of those TR's for my STi, they're great wheels. Let me know next time you're back out here, I'll buy you lunch, man. Been a while!
Where did you get the hazard light button from?
