1st Generation Body kit?

Post by WannabeWrxOwner »

Hey guy's, I'm trying to find a body kit for a first generation legacy, has anyone seen them? I found a website a few years back, it was Australian, but it was really exspensive, and I've lost it now. On cardomain, there's a guy with a 93 wagon, and it's got a C-West body kit on it, but I can't find it anywhere? Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Dont exist in north america, and they look like crap anyway.

These are rally cars, not asphalt princesses. Its very hard to make them look ricey.

You've got two options if you really want a bodykit:

1. Sell the subie and get a civic + bodykit
2. Adapt a bodykit from another car. This equals a whole fuckload of work if you dont want it to look like total shit.

Sorry meng, we just don't do real 'dressup' items for our cars here. You're fighting an uphill battle, I'm afraid.

But take a look around, see if you see anything you like. We can adapt other new stock bumpers, sideskirts and stuff from 25rs and wrx cars.

Good luck!

Bumper, thermoplastic, plastic welder and/or fiberglass, and a cutting wheel.
Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.

1. Sell the legacy
2. Get a WRX.

'nuff said.

you might want to get a jdm bumper, I think it looks cooler. you can also get a dc hood. I believe David carter still has a few left.

Welcome to the site--as you are finding out dressing up First Gen bodies is not a popular idea.

However, while I may not agree with your idea I will defend your right to explore it----anywhere.

Moreover, it prompted another pun:

Thanks for the feedback/encouragement guy's. Does anyone know if a WRX bumper is the same width as the 1st Gen. Legacy bumpers?

From the looks of it, WRX front ends won't fit as nicely as the GC's due to width

Hip, you'll have to remove the image from your signature. Nice cars though.
