All Alcyone
 
What parts do I need to order to change my Subaru over from a "Subaru SVX" to appear as a non-subaru Alcyone? I like messing with people.

I'd like people to have NO idea this is a subie.

Remove the hood emblem, the rear tail light, and the centercaps and that should be it.

Are there new parts to order that say Alcyone?

If he has the stock CD Player Unit... it says Subaru there... On the drivers air bag too, I think...

I'll get a steering wheel cover and a piece of electrical tape. This is happening. Are there Alcyone parts from the JDM models that can be ordered?

A simple search will yield the desired results...but Ill go ahead and spoil ya this time around:rolleyes:

Alcyone hood emblem and alcyone tail bar will replace the subaru units. The center caps will need to be a custom job I.E. Filled and painted. The steering wheel can be replaced with one from the sti (Momo wheel) to get rid of the pesky "subaru" across the aurbag.

Also, SUBARU is stamped on the radiator support.....so if you decide to show off the engine in any way shape or form, that'll need to be filled and painted too.Also can't forget the plate on the strut tower, the emissions stickers, warning labels, door sill plate, ect.ect.

Also less noticable are the vin stickers on the insides of every body panel, SUBARU stamped (Upside down) on the rear quarter panels underneath the rear garnish, the information engraved in the undersides of the mirrors, on the washer tanks, ect. ect.

But...Im pretty sure the vehicle make is also indicated in the vin#, so no matter what somene will eventually find out its a suby transvestite

I will just get hood emblem and tail bar.

A right hand drive conversion would make it more Alcyone :rolleyes: Would be nice thou... but hard to do....

A "genuine JDM Alcyone" still has plenty of Subaru markings on it.:rolleyes:

AFBeefcake 10-24-2007 05:43 PM

You would allso need the boxer engine cover, the clear corner lights and a JDM wing.

If your just going for the alcyone look on the out side. I think you would just need
clear front corner lights
Alcyone tail light bar
Hood bage
JDM wing
Remove the SVX decal under the rear windows if you have them

um mine has not a single subaru marking on the outside of the car, well now iv changed the wheels anyway, the centers of my wheels had the only subaru marking .. but saying that i have seen a couple in town wth a subaru sticker on the right rear under the taillights, but it seems to be a craze over here for the past few years to completly debadge your car so it is possible that it did have the sticker, iv got a 'kiss my tattoo' sticker on mine lol

I'd do it if for nothing else but to see what the cop writes on the ticket under "make, model"

Hah! I got pulled over a couple weeks ago on the way home from the store.
I was doing nothing wrong, really :rolleyes:
I asked the Cop what was up and he said, "We had a report of a suspicious individual in a HONDA".
Whoa!
This is NOT a Honda.
I was so offended, he started apologizing for stopping me and wasting my time :eek:
So, I think I would prefer some badging so at least they will know what the heck they are looking for :rolleyes:
