£485 for a Set of Flaps
Does anyone know any dealers who do not charge ridiculously extortionate prices for Subaru/Prodrive add on parts.
I've been quoted a quite unbelievable £485 including VAT and fitting for a set of Prodrive mudflaps in black by SGT in Burnham.
First of all who the hell are they trying to fool. I mean what are these mudflaps made from GOLD? No rubber......... how on earth can they justify this price.
If someone could point me in the direction of a dealer who does not charge 1,000,000% markup on transactions but would be most grateful.
I don't think even Jordans flaps are worth £485?

Front Black Prodrive Mudflaps Helps To Protect The Bodywork From Flying Stones And Reduce Road Spray In Wet Weather. Supplied In Pairs (4 Door Models Only)

£ 112.49 (inc. VAT, exc. Fitting - unless otherwise stated above)
Rear Black Prodrive Mudflaps Helps To Protect The Bodywork From Flying Stones And Reduce Road Spray In Wet Weather. Supplied In Pairs (4 Door Models Only)
Part No. SACC2593

So the flaps cost £225 inc VAT so they want £260 inc VAT for fitting I think they have made a mistake ask them for a breakdown on how they arrived at £485.

Fit them yourself, its easy justa bit time consuming. Thats probably why a dealer charges so much. Took me about 3-4 hours to get it spot on and neat/tidy. Worth the effort
