I was going to raise them to 60mm of the ground but then had springs and ARB done instead

That still doesn't show how short they really are... from the ground to the bottom of the flap is 11cm.
Mind you, I'm not sure why I'm harping on, they're there now

I knew I couldn't have cut them out incorrectly as there wasn't any spare material on all four sides of the template. You and I silver scooby sport will just have to make do with our tiny flaps.... god, most women would complain of flaps that were too long

I went for 230mm x 110mm graphics for both front and rear. Here is the design I created, Only left hand shown as I have had the swoosh mirrored :-
If I remember correcttly the space available ( Mine are fitted on the bottom set of holes ) is front 385mm x 100mm (Bearing in mind that some of the width wraps around the wheelarch so isn't really visable. And the rears measured 285mm x 125mm.
The fronts measured 100mm in hieght, so the top little bit of the subaru swoosh will dissapear under the car, but to be honest you dont see a great deal of the front stickers unless you get on your hands and knees. So was more bothered about the graphics looking good on the rears.
I ordered mine from www.racegraphics.net 7.50 for the 4 delivered !! Bargain.
