    Even before I purchased my 2005 wagon I've always enjoyed how the STi's had that wider body. Any idea if someone out there makes a somewhat stock looking wide kit for the wagon. I don't want to get a full on ricer wide body kit or anything just the flare of the stock STi. Or perhaps will the front fenders from a regular coupe fit my wagon without too much hassle? She's a 2005 btw.

    The stock fenders on the front will fit. On the rear you would have to get someone to weld in panels from an STI. Call Wagenwerks, they are awesome guys and I'm sure they can help you out. It won't be cheap if they do it but it will be right.

    expect about $3500.00 or so for the rear

    You can get the front fenders but you will also need the front bumper. I've seen some reuse the wagon front bumper but it has that uneven stretched look.

    When done correctly, it looks great. You will also need the front lip and splitters to complete the look.

    There are a few on Nasioc...search and you will find.

    I haven't seen your car in over a year. I thought you were finally posting some teaser photos.

    What's with the name change 420?

    I agree the wide body doesn't look as good on the bug eyes as 04-07 models. I'm torn between sedan fronts and pulled tears or over fenders all around.
