    2000 2.5RS

    Looking for:

    - Passenger side fender
    - Hood
    - Front bumper
    - Both headlights (driver's side is there but mounting tabs are broken)

    Color doesn't matter. Hoping to do some icex, rallyx, and eventually Chump/24hrs, but need some body panels first. Here's how she's sittin right now:

    There's a guy in Duluth who has a WRX hood that I'd like (has the JDM scoop) after it is installed my stock scoop'd WRX hood would be available- interested in making a deal?

    Also, who did you get your front bumper from? I'm in need of a black one as well.

    I have a radiator from an 06 wrx, I thought it was cracked so I yanked it, but it turned out to be the upper radiator hose.
    Let me know if you are interested

    Possibly, what's the time frame that you're looking at to get the hood?

    Haven't gotten a front bumper yet. Found one at North Imports Auto Parts in Shakopee (along with a hood and radiator!) but then the owner wouldn't sell it to me once I drove down there :rolleyes:

    Thanks; I am interested. I assume it's the same fitment as a N/A? PM me a price :)

    No particular time frame for me, mostly was waiting to see if the guy was ever planning on driving down to the cities with his truck so he could bring his hood with. I'll send him another message to see what his plans are for the next couple weeks.

    Jason, i think that there is a difference in the upper supply lines(black hardlines). I may be wrong, but look into it before buying another model year! ;)

    a quick look up says 2.0 turbo and 2.5 NA are different.

    also AT or MT?

    I've got MBP headlight flaps if you need those. They're in Rochester but I could ship.

    I thought the 06 WRX was a 2.5 turbo? Ryan, I'll PM you shortly.

    Mine is a MT.

    Are those the bits between the headlight and the grill?

    How bad are the condition of those lives you need? Repairing them might also be an option of they aren't too terrible

    I don't know. The average life of a Subaru owner is usually far beyond repair.

    I'm not sure what you meant to say there, but there's nothing really salvageable on the front end of my bugeye. I have one of the side pieces, and while it's in one piece it's full of grooves and scrapes from the accident. No grille, one headlight with broken tabs, no bumper, no pass fender, and a hood crinkled up like an accordion.

    Yeah... but they're fiberglass! Think of all the weight savings.

    Unless you're just jealous of my sweet clear corner marker. Knock $5 off the grille and you can have it ;)

    Bump!
    Still looking for:

    Hood
    Front bumper

    Condition really doesn't matter here, folks. Have a torn bumper? Even better, have two? I'll take them off your hands and ziptie stitch the isht out of them.

    I have a bumper that's missing the driver's fog light portion- I have most of the parts to zip-tie back together, but need to find a decent replacement first. Plus it's ugly.

    Haven't heard back about that hood still.

    Ugly? Even better :) There's a silver one on CL right now; the guy was asking $220 for it. That's much more than we want to spend, but if you're interested -- http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/pts/4904384590.html

    Thanks :)

    I'll grab a picture of my bumper in a little bit, and I'll try to see if Duluth guy is still alive about his hood.

    Might as well try to hit up the dealership for an unpainted one.

    Also, try Bumper Warehouse in St Paul. I've found one there before.

    Umm... it's black? :)

    I bought it from Eazy_E_Rich who bought it from someone in the cities. It's in good shape but has a couple hail dings in it.

    Yeah I sold it to him haha. Glad to see someone is still using it. The hail dents are unfortunate. It would be pretty clean otherwise

    It's a perfect fit for us. Put a couple hood pins in last weekend, and we should be ready to rallyx next weekend.

    Random question since I haven't seen any other Subarus with pins besides mine. Where did you mount yours? I used the hood bump stops above the headlights

    Ours are basically where the end caps of the radiator are (but on the core support... obviously). The passenger side of the core support was kinda flimsy after the tweaking and pulling we did to get things lined up. I'll snap a pic next time I'm out there.
