I know there is already a thread on mods on Gen 5 Outbacks. The thing is, it’s disorganized, it’s mostly pages upon pages of LED lights and Plasti-Dip. The most ‘unique’ designs get lost in the middle of it all. I thought it would be a good idea to have a thread where the first post gets updated as more mods are made, developed, created.
EDIT: Just noticed if you’re using the ‘enhanced view’ mobile site, this post won’t show in its entirety. At least it didn’t for me. Switching to old style or full page works.
of Mods original thread is here
Please check that thread regularly as more ideas come out every day.
