Default Stolen Side Skirts

Hi All,

Just had MY55 STI side skirts stolen from my car..can you beleive it....

Subaru dealer price is about £800, which is complete crap for a part that can just be un-clipped so easy from your car!!!

Anyway, can someone give me some pointers as to where you can buy them at a realistic price?

I have seen a set for sale for a Hawkeye, would these fit do you know?

Cheers for any comments

You do see them on ebay occasionally, in fact there are some on there now. However you should factor in that a lot of them will require repainting, where they have been removed and then stored resulting in scratches. I think you would have to be very lucky to buy a mint pair.

The ones on there now are laid face down on Concrete, you would have to assume they are marked.

When I bought mine I didn't care about the condition as I knew I would only be happy with a repaint. Mine are now better than new (some aren’t painted on the underside) and cost me £75 + £120 for painting.
