    I say do it yourself and save a bunch of money. Hell, even if you screw up the first one, you could buy a 2nd and still be ahead of the game.

    I had no experience with body work and I pulled off a 8g body kit on my 7g....just takes patience.


    u put a legacy bumper on ur 1st gen... n then in the future u put an 8g bumper on a 7g but had no experience with body work?! u didnt learn n e thing from the legacy bumper? lol

    It'll only work if you have the fogs & an intercooler to take up all that mouth area

    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    how come you never finished it? I was just looking at an eclipse a couple of days ago trying to picture that front on a g. How difficult was the molding of the plastics? I am not 100% but I think the impreza bumper is to wide. it will need about 1" section taken out of the center the molded back together.

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    The origional pic did not have the intercooler in it. with out an IC the fogs are obnoxious. but with the IC they look much better.

    Cali can get the mold made for this, but we need at least 5 dedicated buyers. Anyone interested??
