The exterior of my car is beaten up pretty bad and i've been planning to replace the bumper,fenders, and hood. Some say I'm crazy but, I prefer the peanut eye (2004/5) more than bugeye and I've been considering converting my 02 front end into the 04. I know the process isn't too difficult, and it has been done numerous times both ways.
So this leads me to my question: Would it be better to...

1) Search and scavenge through junk yards and on i-club for somed used parts.
2) Purchase the ChargeSpeed facelift kit. which includes EVERYTHING.
3) Buy the parts from Subaru
or
4) Post a WTT ad and pray someone wants to do a swap.


Option 1 is the most common. But it must be really difficult to find the parts and in decent condition.

Option 2 is probably the most simple but expensive way out
($3,022.97 to be exact)

Option 3 Might save me some money.

and option 4 is probably least likely gonna happen.

SO I-CLUB.... what would YOU do?

 

i would post up a thread to see if any peanut eye guys want to do a bugeye conversion!! i know one guy did it before. I was considering doing it to my STi, total sleeper

 

there is a guy on IWSTI on the Norcal stockton forum that might be interested. His name is Earl.

 

Really? wow thanks for the tip.

 

no problem. he asked me if i want to trade, but i love my bugeye

 

could you send me his link?

 

forget it. i think im just gonna get sedan fenders. =/
