SonoftheBread Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Keep an eye out on eBay. Saw one a couple months ago for $400This seems like it's the right one, is it? Sent from my Carrier Pigeon using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonoftheBread Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 PerfectWill I need to trim anything or get a new bumper beam? It doesn't have fog lights so I'd assume I would have to transplant mine somehow. The mounts probably aren't the same.

They are a seller on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Is that an extra JDM D-F Outback front bumper and an extra JDM D-F Legacy front bumper? The outback front bumper is actually a rev A-C Outback one. I will use this one for my other 05 obxt, which will also get the rear JDM outback bumper with exhaust cut out (which has been collecting dust for the past 1.5 years ). And you are correct for the other one. It is indeed an extra JDM D-F Legacy front bumper. I actually have no use for that one . Will probably sell it soon on this board if someone is interested.

If I wasn’t broke I would talk to you about the Legacy bumper. With the base model one I would have all 3 rev D-F OEM bumpers Already have a Rev D-F Premium 3.0R And Rev D-F Spec B bumper.

SonoftheBread Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Picked up my goodies this morning with some extra stuff . As I picked up my stuff, I walked around the warehouse seeing LOTS of engines, trans, several nose cuts, etc... The owner of 'Used JDM Engine Inc' in Baltimore is really a nice guy. I will definitely do business with them again if needed. Freakin pumped to do the install. This stuff is even in better shaped than my front end. Looks like the donor car was in great shape. Rust free! Note: crappy pictures from my old Nexus 4. Ligthing was off (left side was natural light and right side was 'basement lighting' which was yellowish). It gives the false impression that the DS headlight is yellowish but it's not.What year legacy is that bumper good for? Pre face-lift?

xt2005bonbon Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Unfortunately no. It is a post face-lift. Or else I would have tempted you with it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt2005bonbon Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I need some help with a JDM front end swap. I have an '05 LGT Wagon and I bought a JDM grille off ebay. I realized it doesn't fit the USDM bumper, so is it that I just need a JDM bumper for it or did I get the wrong grille?

Blink Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 There's a couple of JDM spec. B nose cuts on eBay right now. This one is pretty cheap (relatively speaking) and appears scuff / scrape free. https://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-2004-2007-Subaru-Legacy-GT-front-end-with-fenders-and-hood/153231107250?hash=item23ad4924b2:g:2FwAAOSwe~Bb0Ks0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKC-speed.com Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 No. I'm gonna sell this grille though. Sent from my Carrier Pigeon using Tapatalk You have a Spec b grille for a JDM post facelift. So... all you need do is trim the grille, bumper, and re-drill the holes. The second mount on the step isn't needed. -R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I should just go with a bumper and grille pair that work with each other rather than spend all this time on cutting my car up.

WRX USA Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Yep. Me no like right one It’s terrible. I never even noticed that the lower grille opening is just a rectangle on the USDM whereas on the JDM it looks like the sides are nearly a continuation of the line from the headlights or the hood line.

xt2005bonbon Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 wow. I actually did not even notice what you just described. You're right; the USDM bumper design is inferior IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
