Centrifugal Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I found some threads related to this earlier, but they were uber old and the pics were dead...sooo...anybody have pics of a loyale/gl/dl/rx with clear corners? Seems like it'd be kinda cool. Grazie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uberoo Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 cut your springs first and put an aluminum wing on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 cut your springs first and put an aluminum wing on. some of us like the fact that being different with EA82s as far as custom lighting and such is actually pretty cool. Have you seen Subaru_Styles blue EA82 wagon? If not, sit down and shut up!:-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uberoo Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 sorry I just like performance before looks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 sorry I just like performance before looks... Oh don't get me wrong so do I since I'm planning on the EJ20G swap into my EA82 coupe. Its just trying to find new ways to make the car look different then stock, like the RX bodykit on a wagon for instance. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=831&cat=527 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=1946&cat=527 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 sorry I just like performance before looks... I do to, but looks are somewhat important too. and subtle little things like clear corners can really help. especially if it's cheap. I'm going to try to bake them like the newer guys do to remove the coloring. and see if that works... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also got blue strobe lights in mine and you can't even tell they're there until they get turned on. Hey, I'm a RICER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrifugal Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 indeed, the idea is to stay on a ridiculously tiny budget. like twenty bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uberoo Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 looks important bah!!!It would be so awesome to drive around in a rusty,different colored subaru staion wagon.With broken taillights and cracked glass.Under the hood however, hehe can you say built to the nuts WRX turbo?

Snowman Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Dude, this 'roo is WAY cooler! As far as looks vs. performance, what's "cool" is all in the eye of the beholder. Some people like to go fast. Others want to look good. In my case, reliability and weather-handling are top priorities, so I'm building my car accordingly, and it's neither good looking or fast.

Davalos Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I still don't understand the appeal of Clear Corners ... I just don't get it. I have a feeling someone did it once, like 10 years ago, and i just kinda caught-on as "the thing" to do, like spray-painting your callipers yellow. Because we all know that yellow callipers mean performance. If you have yellow callipers, you will definitely get more than 90hp out of your EA82... That said, I have to concede that it's a big boom that people just can't get enough of ... so maybe they see something I don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrifugal Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 ... so maybe they see something I don't. I just don't like bright colors. At least not in combination with color code 81. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 it just cleans up the look. little color things like that really help the look of a car. if you're not going for looks at all, I can understand that. but IMHO, clear corners, and colored calipers can really add to a cars look, as long as it's done in moderation! especially since it's cheap!!

75subie Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 i dig subaru_styles amber corners that are mounted on that green rx, gives it kind of a euro look. not sure where you can buy those, but i have sucessfully made amber lights with stained glass spray paint.
