Keep in mind fitment is about the placement of the screw holes and how it mounts on the car. I would bet the basic pattern and size of the mudflaps is the same for all the flaps they make. This is also probably true for Rally Armor. Last edited by Zeeper; 12-23-2012 at 08:18 AM. |

Anyone that can offer any help thanks in advance.
I keep bottoming out my car on snow banks and ****tily-designed driveways from businesses. Are there any springs with a higher ride height? Like maybe an inch or two? If I'd known about the crosstrek I would have waited but nope. AWD is kinda sad for most uses unless your car is a fair height above the ground. |

Biggest problem I find with the Impreza, compared to other cars I have owned is it has the worst (lowest)entrance angle I have ever experienced. Even just slightly angled driveway entrances have been tearing the crap out of the stock front air dam due to a very long overhang past the front wheels. I can't even imagine adding that extra bit of plastic on the front to make that even lower! |

Flapatax Update.
He contacted me because he listed the flaps for a 2012 Impreza 2.0 on ebay but hasn't officially released that one, though he has the hole pattern info. I may be the guinea pig. We shall see, I'll let you know what the response is. |

I just ordered some as well. He said he would mark out the holes but I would have to drill them myself. This way if the holes dont line up I can move them. I'm glad you posted these. I like the design of the origional much more than the rally armor, plus the price is a big bonus!!

I actually installed my rally armor flaps tonight, pretty easy process but I had to work slow because my car sat outside in 5f trends all day, and after being in the garage for an hour with the heat going out didn't warn up that much.
The brackets included were well worth the extra money imho, I could of fabbed some up, but this was much easier, and some we got them for 20% of price was reasonable |

I had a skid plate installed on the TDI that I dumped. I don't feel a need to install a skid plate on my Impreza. |

Keep us posted on ease of installation and how that works out. Especially any problems or impact on handling. 1" is a pretty significant lift and would help with that long front overhang bottoming on driveways etc. I guess I could play the glad game that its only plastic being torn up. |

Drl Led Strip Mod
So I recently did a little mod to my headlights, wished my HIDs came in at the same time but those are held up in shipping at the moment.
here is my simple mod for the "audi" style LED strips DRL (however they stay on once the engine is on and stay on for about 20 sec after i shut it off). Adds a sweet touch and very easy mod to complete. The only time consuming part is putting down the strip so that its hidden from plain view. All lights on: Just LED strips: Each Headlight: Lit for approximately 20 secs after engine shut down. |

Question:
Does anyone have a solution to adding a visor light since our visors doesn't have lights?? short of using the map light of course... i wanted to fab some sort of mod similar to the new Benz C class light where its embedded into the headliner and there is a metallic connector on the latch that locks the visor in place so if the visor is locked in and you flip it down to use the mirror, the turns light on the headliner. However if its unlatched and moved to the side window for shade the light won't turn on since the metal connector isnt engaged. (if this makes any sense) might be more work than its worth but the wife complains about the lack of lighting when using the mirror. Lastly, anyone know if the footwell lighting kit Subaru sells will work for our impreza? 2012 and up?? i know it says up to 2011, just not sure if it will work for the 2012 impreza 2.0 |

Blackmamba, I'd like to see a description of how you installed those LED strip lights.

Coilovers for 2011 wrx fit our car?
I recently installed tein springs and they are way to soft the spring is almost compressed all the way down to the bottom. I saw a coil over installation for the 2011 wrx and everything looked the same as our 2012 Subaru. Will they fit?
