Smile show us your rear with your flaps hanging down!!!!!

before some of you get excited, i'd like to see pics of your car from behind, preferably blob eyes with mudflaps on.
i had some cheap ones on and they didn't seem like they were on right so i bought some scott lowe ones and they look exactly the same. just wondered if its the way there supposed to be. thanks for all your pics and help (if you post any )
ps. i'll post some pics of mine when i get home from work in daylight

cheers mervil thats exactly what i was looking for ,very nice in black with no spoiler too.
what was bothering me was that on my 03 wrx they hung straight down like the front, but looking at yours thats what there meant to be like.

I thought that when I fitted them, they're on a slight angle at the rear tho

Glad I could help (still deciding on the spoilerless theme)

I think they look pretty goofy dangling about at odd angles.

They should of course hang straight and ideally not all curled up









..you may need to open out/elongate the location holes a little bit in order to achieve a half decent looking fit

Elmer, i thought they should hang straight but 2 sets from completely different sources flared exactly the same either side, and mervils' are the same too. maybe its just the holes on the 05 sti
