icrackedcorn Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 never seen one obedience to church and state is subjugation to the unjust authority of men
Reuben Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Lsi? Got a picture? If there's none on ebay, try some international sites.
Sarra Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 That's a rare car, leave it stock. Body kits are very overrated.
will29420 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 yeah heres a pic for now its not its best side though:lol:
Sarra Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 If anything, you could put a 1998 or 1999 LGT bumper, side skirts, and rear bumper on it. Slightly more aggressive, but won't look ugly.
Reason Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Too get yourself a body kit and have it shipped here would cost more than you paid for the car. Your best bet is GT parts or check eBay for some JDM bumpers.
will29420 Posted March 14, 2008 Author Posted March 14, 2008 yeah thats probably true since i didn't really pay too much for any of the subarus i've had over the years. im just trying to run something different than everybody else with their 2.5gt
fwa2500 Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 i got my bumper on ebay for about 280 shipped (on a pallet and everything!), its used and has some scuff marks, but for my car, thats fine, it would look out of place if it was mint condition, haha... ive only seen JDM front bumpers and a couple rear bumpers on ebay though, but keep your eyes open for stuff.....oh, and those projector fog lamps will cost you about as much as the bumper its self if you decide to get them.
Reuben Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I can tell you right now, you have a JDM bumper, that bumpers used on JDM GT's even. You want the GT-B bumper Bumper (Unfortunatelly that ones in NZ. BUT it's a limited edition one - epic win for having one of these), Fog lights Get some of these too, they look MINT Aaaand, perfect time to show off my JDM GTB Ltd. http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa208/Pilot_Reuben/New%20GTB/NewGTB1.jpg (http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa208/Pilot_Reuben/New%20GTB/NewGTB6.jpg shows the bumper better)

USDM bumper and JDM bumpers arent the same.
Reuben Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 The early USDM bumpers were exaclty the same style as JDM standard bumpers. The beams/mounts may be different, but from the outside the are the same. Later USDM was indeed very unique Compare these USDM/http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa208/Pilot_Reuben/leggyfront.jpg The Lsi in question, and my old LX
Reason Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Yea but those aren't the JDM bumpers they are selling on eBay. Plus if he were to look i'm sure he would notice if it looks like his or not.
will29420 Posted March 16, 2008 Author Posted March 16, 2008 im just looking for something to make my wagon stand out and yeah that is the front end im looking for grill and all im not looking to try to rice this thing out just something a little more aggressive
Sarra Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 The 1998 LGT, and indeed, the 1998 L front bumper has a splitter on it, as well as a more aggressive look. =\ I don't really know if what you're looking for exists.
deadlydave Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 For something that looks mean, and packs a mean set of fog lights that you can actually find on US soil, you may want to look at a 96-99 outback front bumper. When they're painted to match, they look great on a legacy. I don't think anyone would ever call your car rice for having one either.
will29420 Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 well out of all the research ive been able to do i think im going to try the outback bumper painted to match. if it looks like $hit then i'll go for the lgt bumper. either one should be an easy swap:cool:

That's what it will look like on your car.
fwa2500 Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Before you even do it take a look of an outback. That's what it will look like on your car. i think it looks better on the standard legacy body than the OB http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83196
will29420 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 yeah i think it looks good on the legacy without the fender flares from the outback. and painted body color it looks compleatly different. it should be a straight swap right? just the bumper cover and the grill?
fwa2500 Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 id assume so, my JDM GT-B bumper fits amost perfectly after removng the entire stock one, it not a hard swap to do, but you will wand someone else to help you with the removal of the current bumper.
Reuben Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 I vote JDM over outback. I live in NZ btw so can help with shipping on that LTD bumper i linked to. I'm just about to ship some [parts] to FWA2500 there actaully... (Don't want to ruin the surprise :D ) It's nice to help JDM up some of those USDM leggys
will29420 Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 yeah i would like to JDM this up a little bit. there are so many of these legacys here in the seattle area and i think they are all stock USDM and i cant have my car looking the same as everybody else
fwa2500 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 which is why i got my GT-B grill and bumper they look amazing and believe it or not, people actually look at my car now...its definately a different look from the stock bumpers we have, and well worth it oh, and if your stock bumper is anything like mine was, though mine i think had a replacement mounting bracket that was made in taiwan, the JDM bumpers weight alot less and you will notice better handling....atleast i did
