The Subaru Crosstrek has proven to be a capable SUV and a few aftermarket upgrades take it to a whole new level. With this 2019 Subaru Crosstrek 2.0i Premium build we added some offroad elements to break the factory mold. This Crosstrek is out equipped to outperform its factory siblings and be the perfect starting point for any enthusiast. It’s for sale at Lou Fusz Subaru in St. Peters, MO.

1.5 Inch Lift Kit
We used an Anderson Design 1.5″ strut spacer lift kit to crank her up 1.5 inches. These kits are designed and fabricated in Sandy Oregon, near the base of Mt. Hood. Anytime we use Anderson Design parts we know they will handle anything you throw their way.
Wheels & Tires
We chose wheels from Canadian manufacturer LP Aventure for this build. The LP3 17×8 wheels complement the Crosstrek’s black trim and add offroad styling.
Inspired by the overlanding tradition, these beadlock-styled wheels are strong and capable. If matte black isn’t your style, they are also available in several different finishes.
Window Tint
No proper build leaves our shop without some window tinting.
We applied Suntek Carbon Series window film to the driver and passenger windows. This makes up for the lack of factory tinting in the front row. You get a uniform color across the windows and you and your passenger get the same sun protection and privacy as the rear.
Possible Additions
A front bumper guard from LP Aventure would take the offroad capabilities even further. It fits both the 2018 and 2019 Crosstrek and is available in bare metal or black powder coat.
It adds mounting locations for auxiliary lighting and gives the Crosstrek a more rugged look. For an even bigger impact LP Aventure has a “big” version that surrounds the fog light bezels on the front bumper.
