Default Genuine mudflaps or fake ones??

Hey there,

I've got a set of red Sti flaps (ooooooo eeerrrrrrr) and i'd prefer to get blue ones.
The g/f was trying to by these as a "congratulations you've got your car" surprise present....but she's been phoning round and has got rather confused, so she told me and now i'm confused.

From Wilsons/main dealer the STi flaps are £350 squid.......
You can get other ones with the options of sticking STi on them but why get the fake ones?
However she's spoken to a specialist and was told they are all plain and the STI is infact stuck on even if you get them from the dealer.....

So ffs, who's telling the truth?
and if they are infact stuck on STi, so the stickers come off??

Stuck on....VERY firmly!

Save yourself some money mate and get over to Scott Lowe and check out their mud flaps, much cheaper and every bit as good. They'll also supply them with the STi or Subaru logo's affixed.

Buy your GF something nice with the money you save for being supportive of your scooby! :-)

We'll fm.....I didn't think a main deaker would charge £350 for a set of mudflaps ith STi stuck on them.....actually, why am, I not that surprised that they would.

She'll be thrilled and i'll get the blue ones....
Where are Scott Lowe based then fella?

Supportive? she's only just started being supportive because she actually thinks i'll let her drive it.....I may by her a skimpy subaru outfit for trax though....

My son, Chris has a set of Scott Lowe flaps in WR blue for sale - these are hardly used (ask the guys at ESC!) I'm sure he'll let them go for a really good price. We are both going to Trax on Sunday and we'll probably meet you at South Mimms?
Let me know if you are interested?
