*cough* Japan.. TRD Turbo Charger kit on AWD bB *cough*



So its probably been done. Is it fast? Probably not. I would guess just a little faster then a stock 5spd xB, seeing the bB only comes in auto.

As for the photo chop at hand not bad. I would dump the spoiler & go with a wail tale. I do love the idea of a 5 lug version of the xB. The hood just does not flow fully, and even the Subaru logo on the front grille is to big for my taste. Thats why I got the bB up there, did not like how much of a eye sore the SCION one was. Other then that, good job & much better then I could have done.

What are you talkin about? with a hood like that, all kinds of air will be flowin man. dunno about the spoiler like chucksu said. and a whale tail would look nice, one of them mid ones below the window. and gotta have the STi light covers, thats a must.

damnit Lip. I didn't know anyone else was using the light covers too.... I stole your bumper, but I used the covers on my own. (paint the trim rings silver - they look A LOT better color matched - just leave the mesh black)

Lip's xB is probably the cleanest/ most original, that I have seen yet.
