subaru modification

Hi i have recently bought an o2 reg wrx. Iam now hoping to put the new (03onward) front end on it. Mines is the bugeye shape and i want to change it to the squarer lights. I know it shall need new wines bonnet lights and bumper. Iam prepared to buy all this but i just wonderd if anyone knew if this would definetly fit on to it. Anyone who knows anything please get in touch.
Cheers

Bonnet, fenders, hood and bumper will all fit, IIRC you will need the front bumper member too. Check on scoobymods.com as I am sure they have detailed how to do the front end swap.

yup, the conversion is completely doable, you just need the tools and materials.

IMO opinion though, I don't think the bugeye shape is that bad (maybe cos I have one haha), it's just the headlight style that's bad. Try picking up a set of bugeye STi headlights, makes it look MUCH better:

I'm a fan of the '04-'06 style. I just can't get used to the bugeye, but I did see a cool set of front headlights that were on a WRX STi rally car in a picture at the local Subaru dealer. They were just modified/painted versions of the STi lights, but still cool.

I actually prefer the bugeyes meself
