How much did Alloy Art charge you per wheel Peedee? They're one of two places I'm thinking of using. The other being JP Polishing in Canvey. They look spot on!

Had my arches delivered from Japan today!!!!! Arches were knackered when I bought the car but the new ones should stay in nice condition with the mini mudflaps

They were easy to replace (only done one today, will do the other tomorrow). Worst part was removing the old adhesive, took a while but got there in the end!!!.......

Even with the Prodrive Stone deflectors, my arch trim has suffered a little bit. My left one has a small hole quite similar to yours as well.

I ordered a new pair from Japan as well, and was wondering if it's a job straight forward enough for me to do it myself. Do the trim simply pull outwards away from the clips?

Well, I like to give my car a full once over every month just to make sure everything is secure, there's no play in anything etc. Got a spare 20 mins so gave it a going over. Genuinely amazed at how clean the car is underneath considering its on 80k!!!

Ridiculously clean!

Why do you not like the mini flaps?

Thanks bro!

To be honest, it's the look. Initially I liked them, but whereas normally you don't like something but it grows on you over time, these have had the opposite effect! I have purchased a set of full-size mudflaps so am waiting on those to arrive. These mini ones will be up for sale shortly if anyone reading this is interested. They are the Kalyan version aswel so top quality material!!

Hey bro! The widetrack RA has the revised widetrack dash mate.

Gone Matt black ala RA-R style.

Looks great, silver Subaru dash is underwhelming.

Plus you have the proper jdm hazard light and that's before we focus on engine and suspension upsides that jdm cars come with.

Good job.

How did you change to matt black, Peedee? Plastidip? Buy a whole new dash? Get one from an S203?

Looks good!

Nah mate, just the standard silver dash unfortunately!

I can't justify the crazy amount of money for that gear-surround bro. I could buy it, but I'd feel robbed! I'll just keep checking eBay everyday

I think the replacement flaps will look better than the mini ones.

Will you be drilling the wheel wells to install the flaps? I would think twice considering how good your car's condition is in..... Just a thought though.

Good choice bro , no drilling needed you can just use the plastic plugs given to fit as you did with the mini ones , and these flaps WILL keep the stone chips away and also give you a wider stance on the car and look more lower win win win

Hello mate! How's things with you? This will be up for sale in about 3 months or so, so I'll give you a shout when it does. You won't find a better example
