Just got my wife a 2014 Toyota Corolla LE.. Pretty happy with the redesign and the looks. The LED headlights are awesome, I wish I had them on my Legacy

Thanks for the tips! I'll have to find the hardware and try sanding/buffing it out.

One more

Messing around with an iphone app.. It's been so long since I posted.. Thinking of plastidipping the stock wheels soon.. My headlight is so foggy and worn out.. Any tips to restore it? I'm thinking a new headlight is needed soon, it's bugging me really bad..

The install looks perfect, great job!

Well, after looking at other peoples cars with a lip (ESPECIALLY your car Vitaliy), I've finally broken down and bought the 06-07 S204 lip. Looks like I'll be doing that, and blackening out my headlights too in the near future.

 

Haha, nice I'm waiting until summer to install the lip a 2nd time. It came off last winter in the heavy snow (I was using it as a plow lol). But I'll be moving to a warmer area and I already have my 2nd one purchased and waiting to be installed

LOL a lot of ABP peeps are posting in the wrong thread

 

Yes! I was going to say the same thing. If I remember correctly, you can only have Newport Blue if your car is '07 and up... There's just a slight difference with NBP and ABP

How low did the rallitek drop your car and what struts were you on? i like the stance on the car

 

The drop was pretty accurate like Rallitek says on their product. It's about an inch drop (the drop is a little more on the front to even it out)... but overall, it's not too much and looks really good with 18 inch wheels.

 

Everything else on my car is stock. Stock struts, etc.

I got my first snow set up this year.. Ready for the winter in Spokane, WA

The same thing happened to me last Wednesday man. It sucks.

 

I know.. :/ I don't know if i'll have time to put on a new lip anytime soon... Ill be getting married this summer

 

Oh and I hit some black ice this morning driving on I-84 and messed up my front bumper and rear quarter panel... Im totally fine and I just hit the center barrier and pulled over.. My bumper was hanging so I removed it and put it in the car and kept driving to pullman lol.. It runs fine and I drove for 5 more hours until reaching Pullman...

 

So if you see a subie with no front bumper for the next week, that will be me

My lip got ripped off today I was kind of plowed in my parking spot and I decided to plow my way out... Well i succeeded but my car has no lip now lol

Just started snowing in Pullman, WA

Here's mine again earlier this summer... I haven't posted for a while... Just spray painted my lip after having it for a few years.. It gave it a new look

Glad to have my legacy in Pullman, WA

This thread is awesome! Vitaliy, your car looks great! Can't wait to I can start dumping money into it and have the time to do some diy!

 

Thank you illest, It's fun but don't get carried away with spending the money... diy is always the best way to go

Yep you have to take off the bumper... I made a thread a while ago and it should help a little if you want to clear your headlights...

Oh and blackout headlights would also be cool, haha.. It just takes way more time, but its not hard to do. I have no experience with any kind of work on cars and it wasn't that hard to get the headlights open and paint them. Just takes forever when you do it the first time

Yep, exact same one... and it fits really good on 08-09 Legacies. There should be no gaps... The lip has a raised center portion and you need to trim that a little. There's a thread on here and a bunch of guys bought this lip already and are happy with it (and I love it too)

 

Here's a link, someone made a cool schematic where the trimming needs to be done (it's really simple, you can just use a knife and trim off a little bit of plastic so the lip doesn't bump into the bumper too much)

Still nothing special, stock as ever (for now):

I wish I could post some newer pics, but even with two events that I went to in the last month, I still don't have any good ones.

 

Hey why don't you buy one of these lips?

It makes such a big difference in the appearance/aggressiveness of the car... and it's sooo cheap too.

wow... where are all the NBPs??

 

We had a lot of snow in Pullman the last couple weeks!

These pix are sick. Decent DSLR or P'shop?

Great work and beautiful car, either way. Good job.

 

I guess it's neither DSLR nor P'shop....I used a regular digital camera to take the pics, and messed with some contrast settings on a HDR program (i think its called Dynamic photo HDR, and its pretty easy to use)

Lowered on Rallitek springs, still haven't done anything to the grill....
