Mud flaps?

I know this sounds weird, but since I live in a village with gravel roads the claret get dirty every day - rain or shine....

Any photos of SVXs with mud flaps? Does anything like the factory mouldings available for Outbacks, Foresters and such exist for the SVX?

Thanks,

Tapani

Re: Mud flaps?

i dont think they will look all that appealing on an svx, but i have them on a couple of my other subies and they work really well. the rallyarmour brand makes a very strong but expensive flap (http://www.rallyarmor.com/)

Re: Mud flaps?

I'm going to be mocking up a set of Rallyarmors to mine sometime this week.

Re: Mud flaps?

I've got a set of what I think are OEM mud flaps on my '97 and they look quite good.They're exactly like the ones on our Outback. I'll try to get a picture up soon.

Re: Mud flaps?

Finally got around to try these out :-)

Cheapo ones from the local store. Rather discreet . Will have to wait and see how effective they are.....

Happy New Year 2014 !

Re: Mud flaps?

Tapani, yours look really good. I am actual quite surprised at how much I really like them on your car..

Here is another I saw with flaps. These are Wrx flaps.
