I have the performance creations ones in WR blue. Get the ones that cost a bit more (£60 IIRC) and come with the proper brackets. The colour match is very good.

They've been on the car since last October and haven't faded one iota up to now. They're a bugger to clean though...

Can't help with the blue ones but I have performance creations flaps on my black MY05 STi, been on for abourt 6 months, easy to fit and look great. Come with brackets, new clips, nuts and bolts.

Very pleased with mine. Pics:

Ditto dave, got the exact same performance creations flaps on mine and look as good as the day they went on.

Never had any problems cleaning them either, just wash over with your sponge/cloth and good as new

Yep, same as the above guys. Performance creations ones for me in black, 7m old and no worries. It's the version 2's you want, with the s/steel brackets. £60.

Takes about 45mins to fit.
(Although someone said i have fitted them wrong...somehow?!?)

I used a drill to help the self-tapping screws.

i had mine from Performance creations about a year ago. they are easy to fit but you will need someone to give you a hand in fitting them. they will need to tell you if they are on strate and level. they are showing a bit of where and tear now. well wourth the money imo. heres mine.

That must be the version 1's then, as the the 2's are simple to fit.

Had to take the front wheels off to fit these from Performance Creations and also had to drill hole for the self tapping screws. Slightly off the WR Blue colour. Not faded one bit but they are hard to clean on the front face.

I've got them as well. As the previous post stated...they say you can fit them with the wheels on, but this is just to difficult....They do go on easy enough with the wheels of although it was very difficult to get the self tapping screws into the front, so I ended up bonding that section of the bracket. But the do look the danglies....

If I were you pnbond007, i'd raise the flaps up a little bit. Mine were that low on my old sti 4, and as I reversed up a small kerb, the flap got caught between the wheel and the kerb. Result....£150 damaged to the arch and bumper.
