Your 2020 has that flap? My 2015 doesn't, and I haven't noticed it on the other ones I've spent significant time with (but those are mostly pre-refresh).
Looking at marketing photos, I only see it on one: ![]() But not on any of these: ![]() ![]() ![]() I wonder if this was a minor change introduced in 2019 or 2020? Or if the factory stopped building different versions based on markets, and commonized this part for everyone. Edit: Clearly visible on Subaru UK site: ![]() I learned something today.

Yes, my 2020 has the flap. From the DIY forum, you can get your own flap. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=141584 |

The current rocker panel is flat all the way to the slight flair at the rear quarter. It doesn't have a big edge sticking out a couple of inches beyond it. That thing is DOOMED

What flap? There is no flap.
Unless you mean the mud guards but that is a whole different thing.

I'll add I much prefer this black flap as part of the fender liner vs the painted one on the teaser video. I could ignore the black one, but the painted one is going to stand out.

It isn't visible in any way. Certainly isn't a "flap" of any kind.

![]() Maybe installing mud flaps deletes the "wheel arch extender".
