Question

Mudflaps that is.

To fit MY01 WRX 5 door, preferably pattern parts in black. Local dealer tried to flog me the aero protection kit at over £150!!

Anyone know of such a part?

Question

I have main dealer mudflaps on my UK300 and they were £120 all in for the set. Fit snug and don't look too crappy either (although thats my opinion).

Edited to add:
I just noticed you're in Swindon, thats where I got mine from? I assume you went to Simpsons?

Nope they did try and sell me those though. I thought it was a bit steep but they do the job well and are fairly discreet. I'll Mail you a pic tomorrow (digi cam at home) if you like.

Cheers, Sean

Sean - Please email a piccy cheers!

Catflap, looking for something a liitle more discreet. I bought a Clio for the MRS, and four mudflaps were £52 fitted. I considered that a more than reasonable price.

Luckily I managed to get these FOC and colour coded as well for sorting some IT probs for my previous dealer.

£150 for the aero protection kit, Matt? I paid Ninety odd for this from the main dealer in Sheffield.

If you have a gander at the Cheams Motors web site, you'll see that they cost around £90 for the fronts and about the same for the rears.

Before I did the work, I asked the dealer how much some flaps would cost me. They said at least £200
