I'm thinking about getting some mudflaps for my '02 WRX. I don't rally or anything, I just want them for winter use up here in Maine. How effective are they? Are they worth getting or not?

My doors were getting chipped. Now they're not.
Prodrive mudflaps FTW.

yea, they are a great idea, keeps some of the rocks off the car.

Shane

Aight thanks. What about them mudflaps on eBay? Any good?

Rally Armor mudflaps FTW.
A lot of the good eBay flaps are not in America, and they get bent out of shape easily.

Is it reccomended to get flaps for all four tires? Or just the fronts?

All 4, just 2 looks goofy.

rally armor mudflaps are the best they keep the car cleaner and they protect the paint from rocks and other things you man encounter on the road.

wow 93 bucks for one

I just put a set on my 02 wrx. factory flaps- more esthetic than anything. PM me with your e-mail addy and i'll send you a pic.

they fit nice and look good, but the fronts kinda look bulky cuz they go over top of the side-skirts. I paid $200 for mine through ANTHONY'S SUBARU here in kelowna bc, and that was cost +10% markup.

fastline mudflaps FTW!

here is a pic of my car. its pretty crappy but you can see the snow and dirt is on the flaps, not the car.

They are one of the best things I bought for my car!!!

I picked up the RallyArmors for my wagon, they rock. If you want max protection, something like the RAs or the Prodrives (or giant custom ones ;) ) are probably your best bet. If you want something a little "cleaner" looking, go with the OEM splashguards.

Sparco FTW and cheap! $40 @rallylights.com

Another vote for rallyarmor!

I know how clean you like to keep your car man. Plus with RA you have the option to have em the new flappy kind or the old school firm kind.

Can't go wrong with either one!

I'll throw my vote in for Fastlines. I've had them on for two years now (leave them on all year), and they work like a charm.

Not to hijack this, but which of the mudflaps you guys are running are "flappy"? I mean, which ones actually move as apposed to feeling really stiff and don't want to flex. I just want ones that seem flexible so they don't crack as easy?

I've nailed my RAs a couple of times, with no real issues. RA is making "flappy" ones now, Limited Edition ones. I can't speak for those personally.

Fastline FTW. They are huge (I like driving fast and bottoming them out over bumps :D ) and they seem to work fairly well. If I wasn't at work, I'd post pics.

I had to redo the front 2 flaps because I didn't mount them the right way the first time, and some backfield fun (RE: Ruts, humps, etc..) ripped them loose (not off).

Get 'em! Save your paint (and people's windshields).

There are some "Subaru" ones that look hawt also. A bud has them.

I don't think many companies make the flappy ones for our cars (if any). The Fastlines are made from a stiff but flexiable plastic. I've curbed them one or two time, and they haven't broken yet. You'd have to bend them over your knee to get them to snap. On the car, they will take a good deal of punishment. The old Rally Armors and Prodrives are like that as well.

mine are flappy

^^^^^^ same here. sparco FTW

The "Subaru" flaps are "flappy". o.O

since you have an 02 have you thought about the OEM molded mud flaps? if you trim them you can get them to fit. Looks nice and not as obtrusive as those bigger flaps..although they do look very sexay

I have prodrive and love them, look great, work great, but cost me $225 (not so great)

rallyarmor FTW

another vote for rallyarmor! i love mine. they also act as curb feelers if you have to do a lot of parallel parking. durable as hell too.

How effective are they? Are they worth getting or not?

You decide. All that mud on the flap would have been on the car had there not been a flap there.

http://www.slrvisions.com/tr/mud2.jpg

I made mine from some ABS material stuff from ebay, it seems more like lexan though. I just copied my brothers Rallyarmors.

Prodrive or RallyArmor flaps look great, or Brian has a template for some DIY ones on www.northursalia.com

I had them on my car for about five years. The plastic started to curl after about three years, but I think if you used heavier-grade it wouldn't be as bad.

=S2=

Definetely getting me some flaps. Thanks guys.

I just got the RA Limited Mud Flaps for Christmas. They are very flexi and are somewhat glossy. The hardware that came with them look great! The screws aren't really like metal that you're used to seeing. Probably some rust proof alloy. Anyway, I haven't been able to put them on because I am on a trip with work. As soon as I get back on the 26th though, they are going on. 130 something dollars delivered. Alot cheaper than the 80GB iPod I got my wifeypoo for Christmas! :banana:

i'm really debating on a set of sparco flaps ...

one more vote for RALLY ARMOR. I got mine last x-mas and they've been through hell and they still look great. Mine scrape when i have a full car when driving from flatground onto an uphill incline, but they haven't broke or anything. Definitely keeps salt and rocks and crap off the side of the car. I LOVE my RALLY ARMOR flaps!!

I like my RA flaps so much I have a newer set on. :)

For the price, you just can't go wrong, and now they have the option for the original firm one and now the flappy option.

And the video on how to install them too!

http://videos.hspn.com/?videoid=42

I just got mine at Autozone, and used panel push fasteners from lowes and they turned out great. The push fasteners blend in well and they hold like crazy I'll have to cut them out when I remove them. Total cost was like 20 bucks.

I have beat the crap out of my fastlline mudflaps. I scrape the rear ones every single time I back out of my driveway. I bottom them out while running hard, especially with snow tires. Mine are slightly bent but I really dont care since I rarely ever have to clean tar off my paint. The only downside I can think of is it seems to unsettle the car when it bottoms out on all four mud flaps. Although I havent been able to confirm this but it seems as if the body rests on the mud flaps under hard driving. I kinda doubt that it happens being as they cant be that strong but its just a really weird/cool sound.

Home made FTW.

Dirty wheels FTL.

I just installed the RA Limited flaps. Verrrrry nicee! The only thing I am worried about is that I might have overtightened one of the screws. I checked and I can back the screw out but it won't get any tighter. The mounting on a 2006 seemed a little off. The bumper thickness is a little thick for the clips, but it works. Also, for the front flaps, they are using a longer screw now for the lower attachment point where the skirt is. I screwed it in and I hit some sort of foam inside the bumper and water just started leaking out. I think it's just sound deadening foam or something but I just got concerned. Am I correct in thinking that's what it is? It was on the right front side of the wheel well. I'll get pictures up as soon as I can. Right now I'm off to the mother'n laws to eat! Sorry the post is so scattered, the wife is harping on me to get out the door.

i have the fastlines and they mount solid and have a nice wide flair...

Another vote for Fastlines... Especially now that Mark from Fastline is back in action (though I believe his vendor status here is still revoked). If you order from Fastline, get a hold of Mark first via email to make sure he'll be able to fill your order.

Another happy RallyArmor owner here.

Actually, I had some mixed feelings on the look before. But recently, in addition to winter conditions, the amount of oil and paint, yes OIL and PAINT, on the roads made me change my mind.

If you want to protect your car, just buy the one you like or DIY one.

Wagon owners...

...are you guys running RallyArmor, Fastline, or other flaps? I've heard that the RallyArmor flaps bolt right up to the wagons, but I'm trying to confirm.

I've got an '04 wagon. White. It really really needs flaps. Actually, it needs a random orbital buffer and THEN flaps...

I just ordered a set of Prodive flaps for my wagon!

Well I got my LE Rally Armor flaps on today. Took about an hour total. I had a really tough time getting the clips out from the bottom of the side skirts and I also had to remove the rear wheels to install the rear flaps. I'll have pics up soon.

I want some flaps for rallyx'ing... but I want to take them off for normal driving.

I looked at the HSPN rally armor flap installation and it looks like I could just unscrew the flap off and keep the clips and screws on when I'm city/highway driving, right?

Also, is RA the only one that comes with all the nice hardware? (screws, spacers, clips; not just the flap)

I was assuming that two mini-airbrakes behind the wheel would reduce aerodynamics.

I of course don't care about aerodynamics on a rallyx course.
I of course do care about aerodynamics cruising on the highway.

Are you saying that the flaps, which appear to scoop outside of the airfoil, would NOT affect fuel economy?

Right now I am running these flaps I bought from autozone for .98 cents all 4. Can't beat that. They are 9" wide. A nice thickness, very sturdy, and double re-enforced upper where it attaches.

This set I got from pepboys. They where $20 for the set of 4 and 12" wide and extremely tall. I was scraping everywhere with them though so I save these for rallyx days. They are thinner, but stiff.

You know what assuming does. There is a lot more stuff on our cars that create drag then a set of mud flaps.

The flaps will not affect on fuel economy, they flex allowing the air to exit just fine.

I had the rally armor flaps for a while, but I think they're too stiff for my taste... or maybe I'm just too hard on them. I ended up breaking two of them (one from rallyx and one from backing over a curb.... ooops :D). They're good flaps though, I'd recommend them for a street car.

With my new flaps I just bought some of the material from rallylights and cut them based on the RA template. They work great (and look sweet with rally wheels on too :D).

Can you elaborate on this a bit more? Did you buy some material and use a template for the mounting holes or something? I like how these don't stick out as far as the RA ones.

they dont stick out as much and also dont work as well dirt/ice/snow and so on is spun off the edge of your tire and will still get on your car

dude asked in december, its nearly may haha..

i've got the OEM plastic splash guards, they don't really protect as much as i would've hoped, but they are very subtle- i think the look flows a bit better than some other options. one thing to note is that they don't give at all, due to their construction from high impact plastic, but i've NAILED them twice on my school's massive speed bumps and they're fine. nice, cheap OEM option if ya dig.

Nothing to cut out. They are universal flaps. All you have to do is tap the mounting holes and youre set. They protect just fine for daily driving on paved roads. Keeps the car noticeably cleaner.

I'm going to go ahead and recommend that NOBODY get the OEM mudguards. They're a waste of money. Stick with RallyArmors or the like.

I've had the RA flaps for a few thousand now and they seem to be a good width for keeping things cleaner...

Definitely the width helps keep it cleaner. Nothing worse than washing your car and then all of a sudden there's some puddles that stain the side of your car.

i think DIY is the way to go if you have the time. if you don't like the looks of the RAs like me, don't rally (like the original poster), or don't need "premium polyurethane" flaps, the difference in price is not proportional to the difference in protection between the subaru and rallyarmor flaps, which is minimal. but then again, these are all opinions we have, i'm not trying to offend anyone who prefers RAs; i replied to the original poster.

Yet another use for flaps. Today I rode up on a curb, but because I had flaps on, they made a ****ton of noise, and prevented me from going even farther up and actually doing damage to the body.

Scratched the hell out of the edge of one, but better than dragging my side skirt across a curb :|
