    Updated pics of the wagon. The rain guards came out nicely, I gave it about 3 coats of night shade. The wind fairing was mounted with custom brackets from under the light bar. Also added a Stormtrooper Subaru Rally Pig sticker

    Love the rain guards and the wind fairing! You'll like the folding mirrors too. It must have been a rare '95 Outback that they came on. Great work, the Star Wars theme has really come to life.

    Got around to doing the Honda Pilot wiper mod today. Def worth it! I bought a RainX Rear 14B blade after reading good reviews.

    It's been a while since I posted but last night I was able to put on my new Hard Race front and rear endlinks. Made such a difference in turning quality. The old ones were in pretty bad shape. Had no issues with fitment either. To recap, I have a wrx rear sway 20mm sway bar and and LGT 20mm in front.

    A new year of owning this Subaru, and it never fails to impress me how the 2.2 just keeps on running. The wagon has 235,000 miles on it now. Maintenance wise nothing major, just brake pads and rotors in the rear. I had some clear coat come off my hood due to some highway debris (still not sure what it was) so I installed black vinyl to hide the blemish like a front hood bra would. There is some rusting on the roof by the windshield I will have to address soon.

    Shoutout to @Hinyo for retrofitting Morimoto projectors into my jdm headlights. We kept my DDM HIDs at 5k. The light output is 10x better and well worth it. I recommend this route to anyone with a second gen legacy.

    I bought ProDrive Blue WRX springs this fall from @Hinyo 's 1998 Legacy GT. Installed those and got it aligned at a shop I go to in Hanover, MD. Got the alignment specs almost dead on, and the car handles amazingly well. The wagon doesn't lean around turns like it used to. It only seemed to drop the car in the front about half an inch. No clearance issues or rubbing.
