Mud Guard Question
Has anyone put mud guards on their BRZ or does anyone know if the FRS mud guards will fit the existing holes and body of the BRZ? The FRS accessories info. has mud guards available but the Subaru accessories info. does not. Thanks in advance.

AFAIK they should be the same. The only different body panels are the front bumpers and I don't see why you'd need to attach mudguards there.

Also, since it IS a Subaru I plan on keeping an eye out for something like this as they're likely more useful than stock hard mudguards and I plan on daily driving this in the Wisconsin winter.

There was a thread here that showed some flashy red ones a while back. I can't remember the brand name though.

I heard Rally Armor was making mud flaps for the BRZ if you're interested in those.

PU060-18013-P1, I found the install directions and compared it to my BRZ. Looking at the holes, everything seems to match up. I also found them on 2 sites for $43.20.

Thanks everyone for all the info. Ordered a set yesterday, still don't have the car though. I'm not a fan of mud guards either on any car but I also hate rock chips etc and where we live they start putting cinders/sand down before it snows in late October, everytime it snows thru the winter and don't sweep the streets until after spring flowers start blooming.

Looks like rallyarmor has more pictures of their flaps up. Looks good in my opinion.
Here they are: |
