Not a fan of different color trunks or hoods but it looks like you did a good job painting it. It looks like you went overboard with the RTV sealant. I hope you don't clog anything up with the pieces that are going to come off inside from using too much.

The parts shed should have a set of two for sale. They run about $330 shipped from across the atlantic. They are a nice but I have not convinced myself they're worth that much.

Reminds me of my 83 GL. Did the hood and trunk, but not the roof.

I know that place, Wentworth Subaru, what happened to the GL Steve? I thought you were doing an STI swap on it?

Me? A huge chunk of tree fell on it while I was driving down the street. Still drove it for a few months until I got the wagon, but that did sign its death warrant, especially with the scarce parts availability even back in 1998 when I had to junk it. The furthest I'd go on a GL, if it were a hardtop, would be an EJ22 and rwd.
