A few months ago my kid had an accident in the LX in the parking lot. The LX drove away but the forester may have died. I have a dissent feont bumper and the forester went under the bumper and got destroyed by the frame and hook. Everyone was fine. The LX drove away and I have bee using it for months. Since we have collision insurance, its covered minus deductible. So the question is:
1) Headlamps - they suck. Any good aftermarket options? I have not seen any LED options except for the 7” conversion which is not moving forward.
2) Bumper. I am getting $1100 credit for the bumper. I like the dissent but I have to get it painted and my winch(9.5XP) doesn’t fit very well. The control box is jammed in there. If I mount it on top, it may interfere with the hood/grill. Ironman 4x4 is nearby(Oregon) and have a sale for $999 for the 100/LX variant. I haven’t checked with Dissent, but I would bet its 2-3 months for delivery. Any other good and fast options.

LX 470 round headlight conversion and grille
Installed the first one today. It was a prototype that I made fit correctly. There are a couple minor things I would adjust to the DXF file but it’s good to go. It’s a two piece grille and the top section is bolted to the hood. Fits a 98-02 and possibly all years but have not been able to test...
