Im debating....

Kay so I drive up to the mountains atleast twice a week and salt and sand and crap gets all over the side of my car, including big a$$ rocks. So I was thinking about..... hold..... mud flaps. I hate them but the rock chips are driving me mad. I am down to Rally Armor or ones similar to these (vvv) off ebay. But with ebay you never really know what you're getting. Let me know what you guys think and be honest. And remember I have a wagon not an STi.

Thanks,
Dan

i think they are ugly but if they serve a purpose(saving your paint) then go for it. I think you should definetly make sure they match your paint and no large pink sti writing on them, that way it gives it a liitle bit of stealth

first of all it'll look HORRID on your car since you don't have the fender flares on the front fender or even on the rear quarter panel... secondly it'll look HORRID on your car... LOL

I think if you're going to get mud flaps yo ucould just get the factory ones for the impreza. it will fit your rears nicely (i've been thinking about getting them myself) but your fronts (since you have side skirts) will need little modification to fit but will fit nicely if done correctly. I think there is a mod somewhere on this (don't think it's scoobymods though)

The OEM mud flaps won't have as an aggresive covering as thos do but it won't look HORRID on your car either!

you could do this though:

let me know as i'd like to see the results after you try them of course
