Derek's 05 LGT Wagon build


Recommended Posts

Here’s the TRS Quik Kit. Not anything spectacular but a huge upgrade from the OEM projectors and an upgrade to even the JDM HIDs. Call and they’ll give u a 10-15%. Get the whole kit. Especially the brights harness. Winds up like $270 shipped. It’s awesome. Lights are great and brights are ridiculous. I’ve run a few of their kits over the years with zero issues

Here’s a few pics of my retrofit

 

Amber delete, full housing blackout (matte black). In hindsight wish I used gloss or satin but looks good though so I saved myself the extra day of respraying. The side “bars” are blacked out with VHT nightshades so it’s a full stealth blackout but marker/blinker light still shines through

I’ve done like 5 retrofits (projector replacements and conversion of a reflector which is a lil tougher) and this is child’s play. Harnesses are all completely plug and play and the projector swap is a few screws and ur done. Would do it 100x over.

While lurking on the forum, I couldn't post for some reason (thank woosh for taptalk). I found madrig and all his beautiful work. I needed the spoiler. So I got it.

 

Then came a few more pieces, kouki tail lights and jdm rear garnish. Also plasti dipped the wheels in Brass Monkey. Since I didn't want to spend money on new wheels yet.

 

Working on getting a jdm bumper and aero spats soon.

 

Future plans as of now;

Black out interior, everything.

Exhaust

Front bumper

Madrigs carbon garnish trim.

I have some spare black trim pieces from the JDM tuned by STI version if/when you get around to that black interior conversion. Feel free to hit me up.

looks to be an AT? ouch, don't put tools on the car. bad habit.

 

as one of the folks that has done the all black interior, get parts now, if you can find them. most black trim parts are discontinued. note the pillar B and C in USDM cars has airbag holes at the top of the pillar, JDM does not so you either have to cut holes or find the pillars in europe. I found mine in russia.

Swapped out the stock front bumper and the headlights today. Upgraded to HIDs, purchased from a member here in the market place. I'll post his name later, he hooked me up with some Subaru swag to go with the lights.

 

Picked up the Sport front bumper from HKC Speed a couple weeks ago. I've been looking for this bumper for about 6 months.

 

I finally have a place for the carbon emblem Madrig sent to go with the facelift garnish. Love the look of it on here.

 

I've never done this before so trial and error it took me about 6 hours but its finished and my back hurts now.7a9b6b319f611cccf1192bcd6a1c3796.jpge4c46b678734e33c600f76a0c46f8a00.jpg
