Seen these on a few cars, far as I can make out it just an aesthetic cap for the end of the sill guards.

Question

Aren't these what they call 'aero mudflaps'? Or something like that. You can get them from your dealer. I've got similar ones on my MY01.

Yup there are plenty of Scoobys around with them on.
I think they were a Subaru option but there are plenty of companies doing after market jobies.

they work aswell as a full mudgaurd (well not the rally style ones), just they look a hell of alot better, really beefs up the skirts and is making me keep them grey...

just wondered if they were an STi style or something...

nah, keeps the rally car looks being grey, real nice contrast with the silver, looks well beefy...

Im not to into styling, i like subtle bits and nice bits, but i like old skool and classic styling... not a colour coding maniac..

I've got them on my MY94 STI. I thought they were standard fit for a Scoob.
