I've seen these things on the back of a few newage wagons now, but can't seem to find one to buy anywhere...

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I may not have the right name for it, but here's a picture, it's the black plastic bit above the number plate:


Hope the owner of this picture does not mind me using it!

 

Would you believe that your local friendly Subaru dealer sells 'em?

They do two versions: rubber/plastic or metal. I had the metal on my silver 03 wagon and it looked good, but the only problem is that I can see it being dented if you use it for its intended purpose

Not expensive, IIRC.

 

Cargo Step Panel

stainless steel around £80 'ish
rubber around £50 'ish

they also do a Cargo Entry Guard, this protects the rear boot lip when loading and unloading, Part No. E1010FE001 @ about £90 'ish

 

I figured it was a genuine Subaru item, but looked through all of their accessories on the net and couldn't find it!

I shall give 'em a call - I'm hoping to get a cheap one and maybe get it recreated in carbon... Mmmnnn...

 

Blimey, i don't remember them being that expensive- I thought it was about 35 quid. I have a terrible memory tho

 

I have the plastic one and the only problem with it is it fades after a while

 

This is my frosty stainless steel jobby.It looks better (shiny) when thawed out.



And it can be found here :-
