[quote name='Xenonk']it would.. it's just a muffler that you are paying $580 for... See BL5 or BP5 applications listing.. Keefe[/QUOTE] Is there a specific application for the BL? I'll have to go look myself. I tried going going on kingofimports.com and for some reason I can't click on anything to get in. I recall he had the gialla kit. I guess I'll have to find a U.S. distributor if I decide on the Legacy. [quote name='red beast']it would be nice if they had engrish sites.[/QUOTE] [url]www.engrish.com[/url] ?? :lol: I can't read Japanese either. I either went to altavista and translated the site or just did a mouseover on links to see where it lead. Took some time but it was worth it. :)

BL is sedan, BP is wagon.. some companies only offer kits for the wagon more so than the sedan.. it's a JDM thing.. you have to understand why wagons are more popular over there than sedans. You'll definitely have to find an importer on stateside that will take care and handle the shipments and duty fees (very $$$$ thing to deal with yourself if you every bought anything overseas). Just use an online translator website that will decode/translate the website into English, of course it wont be 100% translated correctly. Keefe

Just to clear things up, Hippo Sleek uses Works Bell body kit design. See: "BG、BHと共にレガシィーを製作してきたWorks bellと再度手を組み、NEW LEGACY が誕生する!! レガシーを知り尽くした両社で試行錯誤を繰り返し、練り上げられ、息吹きを注ぎ込まれ各アイテム。" Plus, there's a mark up from buying from Hippo Sleek (rebadging) $714 vs $680 directly from Works Bell Keefe

Welp, I did some pretty bad damage to my kit last wednesday so it doesn't look like the gialla kit will be something to my future plans when I pick up my Legacy GT...ah well...I think the STI lip and sides along with the gialla rear add-ons wouldn't look too shabby...we'll see. I tried searching for more kits but came up empty. Keefe, you covered it all I think. :)

[quote name='Xenonk']what kind of damage did you do?? Keefe[/QUOTE] I drove in this lane that I thought I could clear this dip right? I mean I have driven this road for a long time but always thought I could clear all 3 lanes but turns out I can only clear the middle and right one. So I drove on the left lane, hit the dip and I hear a *BOOM* then a scraping sound. Pulled over to the side of the road and sure enough the bottom lip was cracked, split from the front bumper and broke in half. *sigh* I need to call Kevin at Subaru of Dallas to try to get something squared away for the Legacy. I really want that car now. My ride is long overdue for a trade in. :) I am itching for a new project but this time with a lot more go and less show. :)

Let me know if you want a hook-up on a JDM B4 GT front bumper when you get your LGT. You can PM me here.

[quote name='Xenonk']that's an INGs body kit.. as listed on their website, it's part of the pricing for the front bumper. [url]http://www.ingsusa.com/lxsportbp.shtml[/url] Keefe[/QUOTE] Keefe, two question: 1. Doe the front bumper on that kit bolt directly on to the US bumper beam. 2. What the hell is 'hybrid aero'? Looking forward to your reply... -Iz

1. probably need the JDM bumper beam because the shape of the bumper shell shaves off different corners that the USDM bumper is occupying. You can, if you want, just take off the bumper beam all together and not use it and mount up the bumper and run around without that bumper beam, just dont get into a wreck. 2. Their "hybrid aero" is probably a combination to carbon fiber and ABS plastic mold. The underside or the skeleton is probably made from a JDM OEM bumper shell which is reworked with carbon fiber and bondo here and there, coated with body gel and harden. Keefe

Gialla has their own set of wheels. It's in their wheel section. I believe they're called "vulcanos" or something. It's weird, if you look at the gialla kit on the sedan with the wing, it looks HOT but for some odd reason (to me at least), it doesn't look as hot on the wagon. Black vs white? don't know. I like the Ings' kit but the car's a little too low for me.

You might end up spending about $2,000.. you'll need to do something with the front bumper beam. You'll need to paint it... so the $2000 is the probably the full body kit and the shipping fees included.. all the pics you want are on their website. Dont forget Hippo Sleek or Works Bell body kit (same kit, it's just that Works Bell buys the Hippo Sleek kit and rebadged it).
