Good thing the only thing I had time for was the front lip and the rear aprons. I will take some pic after work.

I was thinking just doing screws on the bottom part but I wanted to hear some 2nd opinions.

Just got this kit in... That worries me. Keep us updated on your solution

What exactly is your issue?
Are you not wanting to use the screws?
That's how mine is installed and have no issues with the fit.

My problem is that I did use all the screws on the bottom of the lip but then when I am done screwing, the sides are popping out like they don't close in. I am not totally sure because I think I screwed it in all correctly... I might have to unscrew it and try to move it back towards the car more so there's less tension. I'll update yall when I get a chance.

Everything being tightened up might be your issue. Get everything a bit loose and it should line up better.

OP Delivers.

The rear aprons fits great.

Does anyone know if the rear aprons will fit with RallyArmor mudflaps?

Thanks to all other previous posters, the pics have really helped sell these, and the painting advice is superb.

They should. The spats just wrap around flush with the fenderwell. There are lots of GD Subarus with spats and mudflaps.

CarzCarzCarz · 04-17-2014, 01:40 PM

Cool, thanks for the info.

Yeah baby. Can't wait for the weekend. By the way, what screws did you use?

I used whatever that came with the rear aprons. It came with 2 self screw clips and 2 black screws. Your best bet is either remove the tires and then screw the screw in or use a 90 degrees screw driver.

Vis101 · 04-18-2014, 12:18 AM

@OoLong, thanks again.
