Where do they sell them for £80??? i priced them at a subaru dealer today and they are £127+vat each, unpainted, also with o,e arches you'll either need to drill your 1/4's or bond them on, i did'nt want to do either.

Got mine through a couple of days ago, just been out and offered one up to a wheel arch and the fit looks to be good, I already have the widetrack rear bumper as the missus destroyed the original and I got an 05 STI bumper cheap! (hence the need for these).
Did you spray them yourself or get them done at a body shop?, as wondering what primer was used. I sprayed my rear bumper myself, but only used U-Pol high build as the bumper was already painted so I didn't need to spray on to bare plastic. Nice job on the wedges by the way.
Which Subaru dealer sells these for £80 painted? over £200 painted for these at my local Subaru dealer, which btw tubbytommy would be your local Subaru dealer (for parts only) as well.

I am sure you know what I mean. You building some kind of replica and I'm just not an advocate of this. I'm sorry but this is just my opinion. Of course it's your money and you can spend them for whatever you like. I would go for STI instead of spending money on these kind of gadgets. Thats all
BTW I apologize for my language honorable lords.
