Complete: Hippo Sleek Legacy GT-B

Hey. A good friend gave me this kit as a going-away gift before I moved to Florida. I used Testors one-coat lacquer Inca Gold, Testors gloss clear, Tamiya sprays for the interior, window trim, and wheels (Aoshima Racing Harts), Scale Auto Style p/e brake discs, decals from LauBak, Hoppin' Hydros subwoofers, Bare Metal Foil (headlight & taillight backing), and parts box steering wheel. Thanks for looking. More pictures on my website.

Non USDM BD/BG/BK series Legacy's have neutral density rear turn signal lenses like that.





I own one of these and have researched the differences. Other then engine size and lighting/trim changes for certain markets, they're pretty much a world car regarding basic parts interchangability..

Nice job, I like the color and good choice on the rims too.

RE: hiergehts

I am just talking about the model itself which had clear red running down to the clear part... which for some reason is gone now altho i can still see some red smuggle marks on the third photo

and it's no offence i totally agree that the whole car is a great build... it was just that little part that is disappointing that's it.

I am actually aware of difference in subarus because i am a fan of it as well... owning a 04 outback atm~

Naples; I Photoshopped the red smears out of the pictures and went back to remove them on the actual model with a cotton swab and some alcohol so they're gone now. Thanks for the feedback guys.

I like the color on this car. Rims go well. You're raising the bar with every build.

ps-Welcome to Florida. Time to buy some scuba gear!

RE: Astonut

No worries there.. I did not see any major problems with the rear lights and so thought their being unpainted was the reason for your post..

Otherwise, agree it's a nice build - we do not see enough non WRC Subaru builds..
