Wish I could have gotten the Abyss Blue but none were available last year, great color choice.

The WRX STI was always a car I wanted until I finally test drove one, a 2015 and boy was it harsh, felt every tiny bump. My wife would of probably never rode in it so I passed on it.

Did you test drive a Legacy XT before buying the Sport ? If so could you share your thoughts on power difference between the WRX?

Variant Aero apparently makes a front lip. There has been some prototypes floating around but they are in production now.

I got one in the exact factory color directly from the dealer. It's base coat and clear coat plus an abrasive tip to remove crusty rusty paint.

Found some Canadian numbers for the first 6 months of 2021.

It's 437 for the Legacy vs 5004 Outbacks.

park a 2005-2009 outback next to a current year outback. it's disturbing the size difference.

Even more pronounced in the truck world, a full-size pickup from the 90s is as big as a midsize pickup now lol.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Legacy will be discontinued in the near future. It already is in Australia and Europe.

Everyone seems to want a big ugly SUV these days.

Haven't seen another Turbo Legacy yet.

More chrome delete done. Anthracite with green metalizer.

Was it a kit or did you cut the vinyl yourself?

Thanks, I'll have a look one of these days.

Over the weekend, installed a license plate bracket from C&C CarWorx

and more chrome deletes from the front by replacing the stock fog light covers with new ones for the Sport trim level (part numbers: 57731AN07A & 57731AN06A).

Damnnnnn, I should’ve went that route, i did mine with plastidip, took me a good 8 hours, and most of that was prep work

Yea, it was quite challenging for me to do as well being new to vinyl. It was probably the 3rd try at cutting out the right shape when I finally got it. I then used the backing from the right hand side vinyl as a template for the left. It's not perfect, so eventually, I'll probably buy another sheet of vinyl and do it again. Next time, I think I might cut up a piece of poster board as a template. I've also considered using Plasti-dip as that worked well on the grill of my 2018 Forester XT.

The Crux chrome delete worked flawlessly, went way faster than I thought. The vinyl they use is fastly superior than the "vvivid" brand it seems.

Tried to wrap the grille piece but the area around the emblem is stupid to get right. Also the crease between the upper and bottom part makes it a challenge. Pulled it back off, looked sloppy.

I noticed my chrome fog light trim is bubbling, "great quality". [emoji849]

Going to give the good old plasti dip a shot.

It took a try or two (being fairly new at wrapping stuff), but it wasn't too hard. What do you mean when you say you "have the chrome delete on the way"? Are you referring to the Crux kit for the chrome on around the windows and on the mirrors?

Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

Yes they do. Had it installed since February and no issues. The headliner is further back than the eyesight camera and if you tuck it nicely nothing can move.

Here are some pictures:

I routed mine from the mirror along the edge of the windscreen over to the A- pillar, then down and into the 12v socket in the glove box.

There is enough flex in the headliner and plastic eyesight cover to tuck the cable into it. A- pillar cover just snaps off with some clips.

Over on SubaruOutback.org is a thread where they wired it directly into the overhead interior light/ sunroof wiring.

Looks great, was the grille piece a pain to wrap?

I have the chrome delete on the way but will try and wrap the grille as well.

If they had a Sport with the turbo I would of jumped on that trim level, but they don't even have the Sport in Canada. Only up to 2019.

I haven't experienced any judder in my 2020 2.4T at any speed. But I have a loaner 2018 Forester right now and there is definitely some shudder/ jerking going on.

I have only driven a 2018 Legacy sport once but the 2020 feels like a completely different car. I'd recommend test driving one to see if you like the new "features" with almost everything being controlled by the big screen vs actual buttons.

Also the choice between the 2.5 and the 2.4 turbo, big difference performance wise.

Are those your taller tires? Looks kind of small.

Many peeps might be happy with just a "driveability" tune but not sure I would chance it. My nearest dealer already cried warranty when I mentioned of doing my own maintenance. [emoji849]

Traded it in, decided I wanted something more engaging again, was really hoping that we’d get at least something out of the aftermarket for these cars. My ‘05 LGT is still one of my favorite cars I’ve owned, figure the new WRXs are about the same size so it should be good to go.

It's 87 only, no benefits with premium fuel, the ecu doesn't adjust for higher octane.

The OEM pads should be Akebono, wouldn't consider those to be a bad brand.
