Verwilderd Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 You can always try tinting the corner lamps....I have lamenx (sp?) tint over the orange...it made the color appear more bronze-ish looking and matched the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pre-dent Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I love this color. Who wants to trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrad Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I like the blacked out wings on the grill. I'd love to get a lip, but it would get ripped off in the winter time up here. I gotta get some Rally Armor mud flaps on and take some winter pic's of my car with my 08 wrx winter wheel setup. I think they look really nice on the Legacy. I just don't know if I want to get the Classic's or the PU's. I just did a rally x on the ice last night and my car is dirty as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggu Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Looks good! Where did you get the lip? Ebay. Same s204 lip that everyone else gets. $70 shipped is hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrad Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) What $70? Please send me a link. Because for that price I wouldn't care if I ripped it off. Did you attach it with 3m or something else. I haven't been as active on the forum since I got rid of my LGT for the 3.0R. Is there a thread on this lip?

theflystyle Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 here is a thread (think its the same one) about the lip install. btw -- congrats on the 3.0r , why did you switch and how do you feel about it so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrad Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 My LGT was about stage 2.5 and had around 70k miles, so I was kinda getting worried about the mileage and turbo and having to futz with it. My wife hated having to drive it when I needed the SUV to pull my trailer when I went racing. It was setup for autox with coilovers and squeakey HPS+ pad's a ACT clutch and LWFW. Having a todler running around I just didn't want to have to mess with a modded car checking the tune and tweaking on parts. I was looking at 09 WRX's, but no one wanted to make a deal on one for the price I wanted to pay. So I went to test drive the 3.0R with no intention to buy the actual one I test drove. I originally hated the color. I ended up getting a screaming deal on one that had only 3,300 miles on it. I just wanted to see if I would be happy with the power of the H6. (I had a 2.5i before the LGT, so I knew I wouldn't be happy with the 4 banger.) When I drove the 3.0R I thought it would be ok power wise and the wife really liked the luxury side of the 3.0R and automatic. I thought the paddle shifters would be a nice compromise compared to a manual that I wanted. So far I'm really happy with the 3.0R. I've still auto x with it and I did a ice rally cross the other night and it is still fun to drive. I know I can't compete with the STI'S and Evo's, but that's ok. It's not as fun as the LGT, but whenever I visit the forums and see that people are blowing up motors and turbo's I'm happy knowing I can hit my remote start and jump in the car and not worry about it. I know I can't mod the car other than suspension stuff, so there is no temptation there. It would be nice to get another 30hp out of the engine, but ohh well. I do miss the LGT sometimes, but I'm really happy with the 3.0R and like I said I got a sweet deal on very low mileage car that was never owned by anyone other than the dealership. Hope that answered your question. BTW, I know the guy that started that lip thread. I had a Regal Blue Pearl GT before and met him at an auto x.

Luckly it didnt take much of modding to get it to fit. Ill take it off and show you how I modified it to get it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflystyle Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Thanks for that info. Incase your wondering, there is a supercharger kit lol. here is a link to one of the vendors, i know there was a thread about it a little while ago. i know you switched because of the turbo/maintenance but hey we can have fun too (albeit not cheaply) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrad Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I've seen that supercharger, but at that price I could find a wrx or a 2.5RS. Not in the budget. I made a thread in the NA section for the 3.0R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggu Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Just got my summer wheels yesterday and thought it was time for a test fit since I had them. Ignore the crappyness, i didnt have my DSLR with me to get a good photo and the car was dirty. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b107/2zumeunos/Legacy/1bed5421.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b107/2zumeunos/Legacy/82a9a41d.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verwilderd Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Not too shabby! I was wondering what bronze wheels on a bronze car would look like. I likes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk6933 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I think those wheels are Anthracite, matte gunmetal color. He bought them off LGTspecB, if I'm not wrong. I was about to buy those wheels BTW, I saw the new bronze color for the 2011 Legacy, they look so ugly. I like this bronze much more, would had gotten one only if they have black interior.

I like this bronze much more, would had gotten one only if they have black interior. Yeah I have to agree with you there. The 08-09 bronze is much better than the 11....however I do actually like the bronze on the Outback. For some reason it worked better with that body shape...kinda like the 08-09 bronze didn't look that good on the Outbacks, but did on the legacys. I do wish at times, the bronze came with a dark interior (or at the very least, black carpets like in 09), however I think a dark interior wouldn't look that good with the bronze.

Biggu Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 MK6933, I think the only reason he broke dibs was because I was local(ish) to him and drove to pick them up.

Are you planning to change the "wood" grain at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggu Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I was considering doing the silver like a Spec B has but I haven't really decided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verwilderd Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 I was considering doing the silver like a Spec B has but I haven't really decided. If you're gonna go that route, I would highly suggested a brushed aluminum instead of the crappy plastic used in the Spec B. Between the two (the GT and Spec B), while normally I hate "wood", it looks much better and more refined in the GT, than what they use in the Spec. It doesn't make sense that they use the same mats in a $35K Spec B as a $20K SE. So that's why I would suggest a brushed look....or maybe even a silver carbon fiber (kinda like what they are using in the GT this year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
