Was bringing my Forester into the dealer for a brake light switch recall and got a quote for tires. They were able to beat Costco on price for the OE Bridgestones and save me 2 hours each way to Albuquerque. And got out just in time  to go get a burrito with the gas money I saved!

Black Mirrors, Custom?

What year is your forester, not quite the same as my barebones 2017.

I have to go order my winters for mine right after my wife comes out of the daycare with one of our kids.

Unfortunately the burrito turned into Chic Fil A per request from my wife.

2014 barebones. Dealer installed tint and 2014 XT wheels CL from a guy building an adventure rig out his XT. Edit to add I think there were some trim changes in the 2016 facelift so maybe that’s the mirror difference.

Not the same black fog light inserts, and the lights seem different too.

Yep yours is post-facelift. But also it looks like a 2.5i Premium since it has the roof rack. That trim also got the body-color mirrors... maybe the trims were a little different in Canada.  Did yours originally have steel wheels?

I’m guessing there were some small trim differences between Canada and the US like the mirrors then.  What did you use for the wheels?  I’m thinking of putting winter tires on mine and I’d love to make them gold first...
