I have a question. I have a 1993 Imperza(L)wagon. I want to put mud flaps on the front and back. I want to do this mostly because it's a pain to wash the mud...
They will not fit. You need mud flaps for the Impreza (by the way, it's Impreza, not Imperza). Try here: http://www.subaruparts.com/catalog/?section=299 They...

I've a '99 Wagon with has the same rack as the '97 OBS. I too wanted a full Yakima set-up. This is what I did : There are 8 bolts holding the front-to-back...
Hmmm, oh boy! Well, what I did was pop off the 1" x 3" pieces as you were saying and that worked great. I removed the rack to get rid of the towers, and like...
Hey gang, I have been away for a long time, but I stumbled upon a pretty good reason to come back. I was driving down the road yesterday when I saw this...
Cool! In a way somewhat ironic. The OBS is one of the few remaining 'Japanese' cars to still be assembled in Japan, which is one reason I chose it. You live...
