Stanthesubieman's Build


Recommended Posts

The Whitelines are world spec, the Whiteline au site shows the same part number for BM/BR and Liberty (AU spec, basically JDM), and is the same part number as the US ones as well. They're essentially the same as the factory arms but with camber adjustment, so you should still be fine with them.

 

Here's the fitment list from the US site.

And here's the fitment list from the AU site. These arms are essentially Subaru universal since 2008.

Updated 4/20 :spin:

 

 

Added the custom bumper back onto the car a few weeks ago with a new lip from IKON. Wanted to add some depth to the front instead of the V-Limited baby lip.

For the rear, I am working on fiberglassing the S-Craft Rear Half lip so it fits the USDM bumpers. The USDM fenders are wider, thus causing a gap between the lip and the bumper.

Man I'd pay a premium for a front bumper like that....

 

Love the build man :dm:

Per request, I should document what my process was like to get the rear half lip fitted to our USDM bumpers.

 

 

 

Backstory: Since the JDM bumper has smaller fender "flares", the bumper design is almost a straight line. However, our bumper has a bulge which causes a gap to occur on the sides as shown below. Everything else fits like a glove (minus the areas I had to trim).

What I had to trim:

Outside of cutting, the Gap has to be filled. I used painters tape to create a surface to add fiberglass to the lip.

After some massaging and painting the parts... it's 95% done! Just need to finalize the tow hook cover.

To bridge the gap on the side of the bumper, I added foam so that the VHB can touch the bumper.

I have also cut a pair of Crosstrek/GR STI rear reflectors to fit inside the bumper. I added foam & silicone adhesive to glue it in place.

Wow.. been a few years since the S-Craft rear lip was added to car. I had sold it to a fellow fifth gen legacy owner... with better plans for the rear.

 

Update: Aug 18, 2023

Recently just installed a 2008-2014 Subaru WRX/STI Chassis Mount splitter. Had some modifications.. But worked out really well! (Also adding this to my build thread)

1) Depending on the brackets... The radiator support flange needs to be bent.
2) The spacing between chassis mounts are a little wider, so you may need spacers (I estimate a few washers should be ok)
3) The brackets sit about 1-1.5" rearward compared to a WRX/STI. So you may need to refill the holes to push the splitter forward.

Quarterly Update

Things I have acquired/need to do:

  • Rowen Bumper was sent to the shop, bumper was modified to fit USDM body. This makes it 1 of 1 in the US at this very moment... 13 years after the 2010 legacy was introduced. Go figures.
  • Racebred Wheel Spats (need to install)
  • Reclear trunk spoiler & license plate frame (carbon is amazing with sun damange...)RowenRear-2.thumb.jpeg.283885167df882278fa423bcc2b58830.jpeg
