Because our cars don't appeal to the body kit 'crowd'. Because of this, there is effectively no market for them, and thus nobody really makes anything for them.

We may not have good looking cars, but they will go like stink, which is why we love them.....

If your really serious, you could always get the side skirts, rear bumper lips and aero mudguards from a wrecker overseas. 89-93 Legacy/Liberty RS's came with these parts. North American models got screwed. I think it makes the car look 10x better.

But the cost to source all of the Aussie or JDm parts will be close to 2 grand. Hell, a lot of people here did not pay much more than that for their cars.

If you have deep pockets, try the libertyrs forums ( they are in Australia)

its not an impreza, and it will never be no matter what kit you put on it. But don't worry, it's something way more special than another impreza, its a BC Turbo Legacy.

You could put an EJ20G in it, which are available on eBay all the time
