Hi folks - I'm in the same boat. Bought the sparco jobs for a MY02 STI ppp, and haven't a clue where to start in cutting them to size. Anyone able to offer some guidance ?


Thanks

I'm pretty sure somebody somewhere has templates available, that you can use to get the right size and shape.

Unfortunately I dont know who or where from...!

I'm sure someone will pop in soon who does know though.

stiks ,

What are the sparco ones like, ? ie are they stiff or are they bendy, ?

How thick are they ..... 2mm or more ?

Just wanted to know because I will get some if you think that they are OK.

They look ok - I'd say they are about 3 - 4mm - and seem quite stiff. I got blue to try and blend in with the WR Blue. Also came with STI stickers and Sparco ones. I believe you can also get red, white(clear ?) and black.

Cost £65 for all 4 corners from Revolution in Newcastle. Arrived the day after placing the order. Subaru own brand at £175 a set was just too much.

Just need some help in getting them cut to size now.

No way am I paying £150 plus for a set of mud flaps ! you could have 3 sets for that price.

Good luck - once you've fitted 'em let me know how you went about it. I can drive the scoob ( just about ) but I am lost when it comes to getting the hands dirty.

Have just ordered some for a red MY03.... fingers crossed that the colour is similar. £26 for all 4 corners but alas no fixings, so could be interesting. Any one with a clue how to fit ??

Jesus you lot are tight

Just get them from Scott Lowe, perfect fit, no cutting and all the fittings.

You will spend more time p1ssing around for the sake of £60, if you can afford a new STi you can afford £150 for mudflaps

I coudn't find anything on the link to Derek Carswells for mud flaps - but a great site with lots of other useful info - Cheers DJ73

I'm going to have a go at fitting them on friday - got a mate who's worked on a few race/rally cars so it's worth a shot.

If it works out OK I'll post some pics and dimensions... If not its Rooky1's group buy and post the messed up ones on E bay
