This has probably been done-to-death, but couldn't find anything under 'search'

Gary,

I got my car colour coded and within a couple of days a stone had bit a nice chunk out of one of the skirts meaning I had to have it professionally touched up. They also keep a lot of crap of the side of your car, especially in winter! They're a good -if not cheap- investment!

I think they look good on scoobies too!

I got mine from Scott Lowe, very good quality, MUCH cheaper than Subaru UK!

All the best,

Paul.

Cheers mate

I am very tempted to get a set, think that black flaps on a silver car with black wheels would really suit it!!!

Personally I think they're a bit gay. That said I'm going to get some at some point in the next couple of months because my 18" alloys are throwing loads of **** and gravel up the side of my doors.

And I am most definately not gay, (I love stroking cats too much )

Absolutely. And preferably well groomed ones that don't smell and have a nice owner.

I haven;t always been so fussy though..........

Do the below splash guards have any effect, or are they just cosmetic?

They look good - and my white Wagon has at least 95% less tar spots than without them. That must be a good enough reason to fit them

Wheels (PFF-7) and rear spoiler are Prodrive, the lip is from Scott Lowe.
