Strabismo Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I just bought a hood deflector from the stealership for my LGT but I'm now bothered by the possibility that they might have given me the one for non-turbo models by mistake. I don't want to open the bag if it's not the right one. All the sticker says is: Description: SCI700319 Item: 10064SUBHG Model: LEGACY/OUTBACK Nothing about "turbo" or "non-turbo". What are the physical difference between the hood deflector for a turbo and non-turbo models? Is there a way to figure it out by the part #?

Strabismo Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Never mind, it says it right in the installation guide: "LEGACY/OUTBACK (non turbo only)" so they gave me the wrong one. I'l have to bring it back tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The difference is that the back side(hood scoop side) has a lip on the non-turbo model and the one for the turbo is flat and has no lip. They sure don't make it clear or obvious anywhere as to which is which. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strabismo Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 Ok thanks. Mine has a lip curving up at the rear, which confirms that its the wrong one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 That one would direct air over the hodd scoop while the other allows air to follow the contour of the hood. I still scrub bugs off my hood scoop during the summer months, so I know the air stream makes it into the scoop. Most people on here don't like or have this part, but I wouldn't go without it at least during the winter and spring when the gravel and rocks are flying the most. My hood is still perfect and doesn't have a single chip after 3 years and 45K miles. Well worth it. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devobuzz Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 But how is your front bumper - mine has a ton more pits then the hood.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qikslvr Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 My front bumper is still pretty clean except for a couple parking block scrapes on the underside from the wife and maybe 2 nicks from rocks. I try to stay off the azz or trucks and SUV's that hurl rocks at my front end and I don't ever drive on gravel roads. Also, I have an old Jeep that I drive during the winter. I have been thinking about a clear bra setup, but that sh*t is crazy expensive especially if you have someone else do it. Let's kick this pig!

Strabismo Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 I brought it back and they told me that they didn't had any deflectors for GT models so they just gave me my money back. Are these GT deflectors only available in the US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexylegacy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Someone must have a part number here for that deflector. Then you can take that back to the dealership and go with that. Anything we have in the US you should be able to order in Canada. The only thing I couldn't get here was my Australian Liberty badge. Had to get it from a guy in Aussie.
