Has anyone done a Spec B front bar swap on an MY04-06?

Has anyone done a Spec B front bar swap on an MY04-06?

Postby tangcla » Tue Feb 12, 2008 7:42 pm

I'm thinking about doing the Spec B front bar swap. Has anyone done it before?

Wouldn't mind a bit of guidance as to what bits I need and what I don't need...

You'll prob find the answers on the legacygt forum.

Let's just say the iMac is still on my list... just rearranged, that's all...

and plus, I came across this front bar pretty darn cheaply... and it's silver, too, so I can put it on s traight away!
(but it's got scratches so it'll look ghetto :P)

What you'll need are a few of the mounts, clips and a new grill.

I'm fairly sure the grille I have is already the Spec.B one, it's different to the other ones I've seen around.

Clips - just get from Subaru? Same type as the ones that are holding on my current front bar?

I've got the foglight brackets already.

No, it isn't.

The spec B grill is bigger for the pre 07 models - it will not fit with the std (non spec b) bumper.

Actually the most expensive part will be the grille. I am getting the front bar and STi lip at a good price :D

but you can't get the pre-facelift Spec.B here in Aus... not the 2.0GT front, anyway...
