Got the Prodrive flaps this week (see pics in the General Scooby Chat - tread "They have arrived !").

I got 'em in blue for about 100 GBP a pair from Monks in Macclesfield. I understand most dealers will give you a discount when ordering parts.

I been told there are many non-standard items around. The key reason I chose for the genuine item, is because I hope these will withstand better the extreme conditions here (TBC). Non-Subaru ones might be mainly tested in a UK environment.

Can you explain, Joy ? In which way was the quality better ? Thicker ? Not braking as easily ?

Thanks :thumb:

compared to the prodrive ones, a lot thicker, just seemed a better flap in my opinion, and there blue was a very close match to the car as well :wink:

Rear ones are on. Pretty easy in fact. Didn't even use a jack or anything.

Nearly froze my hands off though so the front ones will be for tomorrow (bugger all to do in the town anyway, so I can as well make the pleasure last for the whole weekend).

I do admit I'd been cleaning the engine and washing the car first. Hence the cold hands :wink:
