Suggesting a 06/7 body kit on a 05 is not only stupid but way too much work as well. The 05 is relatively flat across the front, but the 06/07 is more curved & has the grill moulded in. I'm part way through a 06/07 bumper on my Forester & it's proving to be a real b*tch because of this curved front. Some one else has done a peanut bumper on their Foz & it was easier.

No doubt with the different shape you'd need the reo support, maybe a radiator mount, headlights aren't cheap. Unless you're very good with bodyword & can paint yourself...labour will not be cheap.

Don't do it, your will regret wasting the money. Better off spending the money on paying off some of your loan or stash it away so you can upgrade to a wrx sooner.

Hey JDog, not sure if you know this but see those little smiles
on the right of the screen when you post?

You can one of those instead of using the SMS style smilely
face " 8 D" all the time, there are heaps of kool ones to
choose from.

Yer but the faces don't come up on my iPhone, because I'm using an app to post on Perth-wrx called tapatalk. So I use txt faces.

Haha...no worries. I've decided to not get a bodykit. Tis a waste of money for the n/a.
Cheers.
