I went and looked at the Zerosports site again, and sure enough, it says this:

Front Grill Type 3
BE5/BH5(Dtype)
\29000　　\13000

d'oh!

"Dtype" meaning the revision D. Can someone confirm for me that there are no US models that this will fit?

I believe it would not fit a US model. ALL are BE's are of the A-C revision, we never recieved the D revision bodywork (or rear suspension upgrades) that I know of. Therefore, unless that grill is close insize to another Subie, I wouldn't think it would fit.

Hmmm, now is the time to do a complete rev D front end swap LOL. :P

Nah, i'm getting a B4 grille from someone on NASIOC. I'll just have to bite the bullet on this one, i guess. It'd be hard to sell a grille for a JDM-only version, to a Japanese person, from the US...

True true. I guess if someone comes up and wants to make their own grille and is good with fiberglass.

DLC, AKSubie, or anyone else:

Where would you suggest I look for JDM badges, lights, etc?

Save the grill, I have peeled all the badges off my Outback; the badges that were pinned were the Subaru on the back and the Outback on the doors. The Ltd. and Outback badges on the tailgate were attached with double-sided tape.

I have an carbon STi rabbit badge that I could put on, but that seems like putting an M3 badge on a 318i > bad form. I currently have a sticker covering the holes, but I would like something more appropriate. Even, dare I say, exotic.

Car Info: Subaru

There are usually several badges (b4 at least) on ebay several times a month...sometimes some L legacy badge too.

B4 "technically" is the code for the legacy sedan, but who would really know that

(assuming you have a wagon)

As for headlights, depending on your MY, these JDM lights are available off and on through ebay also...if not check the classifieds section of nasioc...they pop up there too. Theres at least one set of JDM rear tail-lights on ebay right now that say "LEGACY" instead of "SUBARU" on the center garnish and are red/white versus red/white/orange. This is for the pre-00 MY thoug as I recall...so again it depends.

I often search for "JDM subaru" and "JDM legacy" and "JDM B4" on ebay to find these 'goodies'.

Good luck!

EDIT: guess you've got an 00+...so you're hosed for lights, they are really rare IMHO. Keep trying on ebay though, goodies pop up there frequently.

I will go along with fibuz. Most if not all of my JDM parts had come from Japan ebay, although at that time there were a couple members on the boards that would help us stateside people out. I have no clue if they are still on the boards or even if they are still willing to help, this was like 2-3 years ago.

The only other option is to hit up japanparts.com or any other online retailer that offers badges/JDM stuff. I believe MRT had a whole section for stickers once.
