Trust me the newage cars suffer badly from it.I fitted those @15k by that time it already looked like someone had fired a 12 bore at it

If your car is blue the go for blue flaps with white writing, thats what i'm going for anyway, think thats the best combo.

I went for the black coz i thought that blue flaps is to much blue but the black ones compliment the blue nicely

I got to say that i am well pleased with the mud ban ones cos the have got black plastic brackets unlike some ones with silver alimunium brackets
so u dont see brackets in the arches.

That was my thoughts untill i see alfs beauty , above , the black with white looks cool . and plus my calipers are black with silver writing , so maybe they would suit mine more , i just really dont know , i'll just have to see how i feel in the morning when i oreder them , (as i'm gonna go for it and get some )

have to say that black poss better looking than blue ones. Mine are blue and sometimes its just too much blue. Above pic is excellent!!! Also nice to see different logo than STI. My car seems to be plastered in STI everywhere!!

Mine are exactly the same as alfs. Black with white subaru logo on a blue car. They don't stand out as much as the blue ones. More understated. Plus if you get blue ones and the colour match isn't quite right they look naff.

That is a very true thing my friend , maybe i'll just get the black ones then , cant get the wrong type of black i suppoe so it'll be the safe option for the most satisfying look ,
