Legacy Wagon Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 One thing to remember is that black may look awesome when it's clean, but it looks like barf when it's not. Also +1 on the Rota's. They suck and fold in half. I would get some WRX rims if you're looking for performance gains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baddog Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 04 STI rims are the ONLY years that will work on our Legacys. WRX 02 to Present I believe works on our cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92.Legacy.SS Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 just wondering what did you use to smoke/ tint the turn signals lol because i like the look of yours but really want to black out my headlights if i tint the turns what do you think? i should do first (and how do you black out head lights haha ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Wagon Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 VHT Night Shades work. It's all just in a spray can. Go up to Autozone or Discount Auto and they should be $12-14 a can. You spray a heavy first coat and then light coats after that. It should only take about 2-3 coats to make it practically pitch black. You dont want to get it too dark or the signals wont show through them. Tinting the headlights isnt a good plan. These cars dont put out very much light to begin with so making less light able to pass through them is not a good plan. On the other hand you can bake the lens and paint part of the inside (not the part where the light shines, but around it) like this picture. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQZN98MiLPzposGpRrYiFEPbLR5Uw9HRQIACCSdRwOCdgPjRVIgZg&t=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92.Legacy.SS Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 how do you go about baking lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Wagon Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 You'll have to just find a thread on them haha I'm sure someone on legacycentral has done it. About 1,000 people on RS25 have done it. It's something like 250 for 5 minutes or something, but I haven't tried it yet so do yourself a favor and dont take my word on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
