Default Wagon Mud Flaps?

Hi guys,

After some mud flaps for my 05 plate blobeye wagon but I'm struggling to find a set that aren't just for the saloon. Any help would be appreciated?

Cheers
Lee

I think it's the fronts that are different due to the saloons having flared arches.

My wagon has mud flaps on the rear, I think their original from factory, and nothing on the front and it's driving my OCD mental. I've been trying to find matching for the front but nothing. I'll post a pic of the rear ones tomorrow see if anyone knows if I can match some for the front and where from.

I can only assume there from factory along with the black plastic trim.

I have scoobyworld mud flaps on my wagon, and they needed adapting a little bit to fit properly both front and rear.

​​​​​​What sort of changes did you have to make and do they look good?

Mainly drilling a couple of new holes in the bracket. I'll take some photos at some point

I've got the Scoobyworld mini mudflaps on my wagon, very easy to fit and haven't moved since I fitted them 2 years ago.

@FFForester

Have you got a bug or blob wagon? I’ve just had a set of these mini mudflaps turn up and the holes are in the wrong places. Did yours go straight on?

Beware, depending on the year if you go for saloon stuff it may not fit the wagon. Newage STI saloons are likely to be widetrack, wagons are not. It's not a huge width difference, but anything that goes across the width of the car won't fit properly.

Well I’ve fitted the front mudflaps within no real issues. Need to take the back wheels off to fit the rear ones as the screws on the old rear mudflaps are rusted and inaccessible.

I've just ordered some Rally Armour ones for my Blob wagon. Although they are listed for "sedan", it says that only the 2006 (Hawkeye?) wagons are different at the front.

Fitted today. What a huge pain in the **** they were to all fit, especially the rear ones.

Yes our current WRX/RS flaps will fit the wagon equivalents/counterparts without modification except for 2006-2007 Impreza Wagons. 06-07 wagon owners have successfully modified the application by performing a tapping of an existing hole marker in the side skirt and flap in the front as shown (rear is bolt on):
Thats from the rally armor website on their mud flaps FAQ. I'm going to order some soon for my blob wagon so hoping they definitely fit

Annoyingly some of the letters fell off my mudflaps. Lost one on a rear and one on a front. In the end I just removed all the letters completely and went back to plain black.
