This is my daily. I got it back in March and it has given me nothing but issues. Wanted to share since it's working well now and I just did some upgrades today. It's a 2007 Outback base model with a 5 speed. Black on black, no awful 2 tone like most of them.
Here's what I've done in the past week:
Yellow fogs (lamin-x and bulbs)
OEM rubber mats
215/65 Yokohama Geolandar ATS
Newer OEM Impreza steelies (came with awful 5 spoke steelies)
Subtle Solutions 1" lift
Don't really have more plans since it's my daily and I'm trying to boost one of my other cars at the moment.
Before
You know, not bad.
>implying 2-tone isnt god tier

Beautiful shot man

How cheap can you actually be, Subaru?
>>13939781
White and grey isn't bad, but on my gen Outback they look so bad. I think a lot of it has to do with the two tone going on the flares above the wheels so much. Plus the colors on those are like earthy greens and brown usually. Really shit looking.

It has projectors though. Would be pretty simple to swap to HID's without blinding the fuck out of people.
Another shot

>1" lift
nice, that'll be useful.
>>13939675
RIMZOS!
>>13939813
Between the larger tires and 1" lift, it's about 2.5" overall. They're just strut spacers, but I needed them to avoid rubbing.
>>13939675
I just bought a '00 Outback Wagon to daily, still need to do some stuff before it's ready to go. Still trying to get used to driving a machine that isn't a fucking MX-5 though. It's strange not having to wear ear plugs due to noise, and actually having room to carry shit.

Should've lifted the RX8 senpai. Either that or joined the XJ master race.
>>13939897
Well the RX8 might not be the greatest winter ride. That and it got a random bullet hole in the door a few weeks ago. No idea when or how it happened.
Steelies look too small for the amount of lift on it.
Get bigger, actual wheels
>>13939908
You know any good places that rebuild wheels? They're welded so they need to be split, and I need custom lips made. Looking to get a quote soon.
>>13939909
It's the look I wanted, and is also stock size. I have two sets of 5x100 BBS LM's since you like to criticize my lack of real wheels. Those would look really silly on it though. I have 'bigger, actual wheels' for cars that matter and aren't daily beaters.
>>13939897
and btw I don't think I'll need an XJ for Kentucky winters lol.
p.s. i just scooped some 15x7 4x100 Carving Head 40's. Will sell cheap. Get at me if you want em.
>>13939925
MemoryFab is probably your best bet, as they do a bit of smaller stuff. Weld will have to be professionally machined (unless you want to try with an angle grinder). Small lips are hard to find usually, but 15" aren't terrible to get ahold of.
>>13939926
>this is my daily beater shitbox
>but I also dump a bunch of money in it with upgrades and take a ton of pictures of it
Just put different wheels that fit so it doesn't look like shit. But hey, if that's the look you're going for...
Other than the wheels, it looks bretty good IMO. Good job
>>13939926
Don't really like Carving Heads. If you find some 15" fins, mesh, etc DM me. I know what wheels I want to order, but I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger. They're $2,400 which is a little out of my comfort zone. Looking at other options before I go through with it.
I have an 02 wrx wagon. Good work mang
>>13939897
>lift RX8
Why would you ever?
>>13939675
You know what I actually really like how it looks anon. Steelies looks way cool
>>13939675
lol i use to dd a 30k cummins and it broke all the time and cost a fuck ton of money.
now i use it to drive in the snow and thats it
i have a 700 dollar ford escort wagon 5 speed and its fucking awesome and cheap to fix

this is literally what subiefags think upgrades are
>>13939675
It's given you nothing but issues, but everything you listed isn't mandatory for fixing a car
>>13940592
Good thing I'm not a Subaru enthusiast. All of this stuff is an upgrade in one way or another. I think the fogs look better yellow, that's all. Not going to pretend like they make a big difference.
>>13940611
Well I didn't mention any of the maintenance parts/broken shit I replaced a couple weeks ago.
>>13939881
are you me?
