Capitol Subaru To Start Selling Rally Armor!

Yup, when I went in on Saturday I talked to the Parts Department Rep about fog lights and noticed that they had an announcement that they are going to start selling the Urethane Mud Flaps!

You would think they would overcharge for them but no sir, they are letting them go for the same price as RallyArmor.com and Rallysportdirect.com; $129.99.

Order early, these will NOT idly sit on Parts Department shelves for long!

If I am correct it is 129 with installation - no shipping.

I say order quick because they sell out same day when they get a shipment.

who pays more than $50 for mudflaps!? I'm sorry but that is just insane.

I thought paying $40 for a stupid roll of rubber was insane from OSH.

For most things yes, going quality materials is usually the best, most inexpensive way to get things done.

But honestly, when its mudflaps it's trivial. I spent 4 dollars and about half an hour making/installing mine which I would say do their job, pretty well. Its way cheaper opposed to RA. What's 4 bucks once a year? (hell, they may last longer).

Yeah, it doesnt have a logo or shine, but I made/bought it for one task, deflecting rocks and some other stuff i don't want on my car's body.

PS: Not dis'ing Rally Armor (their products are top quality), I'm just throwing some alternatives out there.
