young wheels Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 well here's the deal i got cut off and ended up hitting the person that cut me off now i figure this is my chance to do the outback front clip swap on to my 2005 legacy gt now here's what i need help with is what parts will i need besides the front bumper, front fenders, fender flares, foglights, and a new gt hood with scoop, also will a aftermarket legacy grill fit in the outback grill spot without modifing it. thanks for the help and i know it would be cheaper to just get legacy replacement parts but i wanna be different.

boxkita Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 you should check out the vacation pix to get all the parts you'll need. The outback fender flares include the side skirts & rear flares. Dealer price is about $1200/side when I last checked Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young wheels Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 dude i went to check it out but thats a deadend no pics nothing write and im thinking about trying to find my parts used not new unless i can't find what i need at all and i was wondering if this swap has been done before by anyone on here or would i be the first? any help or guidance would be nice thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 you're probably first. Mostly, every one is asking why? this makes no sense. a 2005 ob is the same car as 2005 lgt. just different bumper, trim, and spacers between body & suspension. Seems a waste of a perfectly good car. And really expensive, as you have to find a totaled ob that was hit from the rear. gl Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkumaMax Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I don't think it would match up right since I think the OB bumper hangs lower to the ground then the LGT bumper. I mean your looking at at least $1000 just for parts from a junkyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Why do you want to be different? Is it the big fog lights that you are after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkumaMax Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 It's funny this came up because it would be interesting to have an outback front end with the LGT rear end and rebadge it as an Legacy Outback Sport Like the Impreza has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young wheels Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 i was after the big foglights and i like how the outback's front end looks but i decided to just get a stock replacement bumper n hood do a front lip and pimp out the current lighting setup with hid,halos, and some other ideas im toying around with well thanks for ur opinions guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
