snoman Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Not on black, but the better color... white. http://aaron.huba.home.comcast.net/legacy1.jpg It looks great when it's clean. It adds some nice lines to the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoman Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Here's a bigger pic. I'm having a hard time finding pics where the chrome actually shows up in photos... it's too shiny! http://aaron.huba.home.comcast.net/IMG_0961.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUD Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Yep.... they look good! If I wasn't planning on powder coating (or anodizing) my future 18" (or 19") wheels, then I would hook these up!

The B4 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 my gosh that ^^^ is beautiful! This is the way the Legacy should have been brought over. 5 mph bumpers be damned! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc51373 Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Where do you get that Rocker panel trim for a Black one? Looks Pissa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlabs Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 I believe that's the stock GT rocker panel trim? Lots of places sell it... subaruparts.com is selling it for $106 currently, for example. It looks pretty hot on that black B4. Anybody have pics of one on a stock USDM black sedan? -=- Livin life at 140 BPM -=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon in CT Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 That chrome strip is standard on the spec.B so if your dealer still has one, you can check it out in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycl Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Two questions: 1. On subaruparts.com, why are there different colours for the "GT Rocker trim panel", when the thing is presumably chrome/silver in colour? 2. Are there any sites which ship this item overseas (i.e. Australia)? Thanks if anyone can answer this.. esp Q 2.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It replaces the whole rocker panel...i had it installed on my car...basically they change the whole sideskirt and it is prepainted with the chrome trim on top.

snoman Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 I originally didn't want the chrome trim on my car. It was delivered with the trim already installed, and once I saw it in person I loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlabs Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Anybody know if this is an (easily) user-installed item? And if the price ($129 list) is per side, or for both sides? Methinks it'll look supahot on a black car Edit: Found one post regarding install... seems to be an easy enough DIY job (methinks) I have it on my car, its nice, and i havent seen any other 05 legacy on the road with it. it is installed by removing th eold rocker panel completely and putting the new on on. its all push clips and screws. looks nice on my black gt See here -=- Livin life at 140 BPM -=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks it'll look supahot on a black car I agree Starlabs, mine is black and I am going to get the trim and see how it looks, I think it will look sharp. They come in pairs just so you know. That price should be for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlabs Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 ^ Awesome, thanks for the info. Make sure you post pics On another note, I noticed that the prices (2005?) used to be around $300, list: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4142&highlight=rocker+panel Now they're going for $129... that's a big reduction. Anyone have an idea why? Not that I'm complaining, mind you -=- Livin life at 140 BPM -=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlabs Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 ^ As they should... who the hell would pay $300 for those? Much more reasonable pricing now IMO... -=- Livin life at 140 BPM -=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
