Cool

Got My 555 Flaps Off GGR Around 18 Months Ago, They Were A Set Used For Display So I Got Them At A Reduced Price, Checked On Some Fronts A While Ago And I Believe They Are Now Unavailable With 555 Branding So The Fronts Are Plain Blue But Easy To Get Some Graphics Cut Me Thinking.

That RB5 Is Just The DB's

wotto chaps

I've recieved a few e-mails,so for all my fellow cheapskates,hears how to make your own for about £60

..apologies for grammer,punctuation and spelling mistakes in advance

1,Buy some Impreza Sport flaps..P.No SACC3348 & 3349 (£25)
(no drilling or wheel removal required,instructions included)

2,Buy some Kaylan sheets from Rally design 01795 531871 (£30)
(choice of 4 colours and no connection,btw)

3,Break off the brackets from the Sport flaps
(they are only held on by platic rivets)

4,Place the Sport flap on top of the Kaylan sheet,draw around it and mark out the location holes for the wheel arch

5,with the location holes and profile of the wheel arch marked out,you can then decide how much wider or longer you want the new flaps to be

6,Then cut around the desired shape(strong scissors will do it)
not forgetting to radius the edges.

7,finally use the Subaru brackets to clamp the cut-out Kaylan shape onto your car

8,Phew!!...cont...
