Curious to see what it looks like with those at a distance. They look great up close!

Here they are...
They look good, EXCEPT for the logo. I wouldn't buy them for that single reason.

Get them in Silver/Grey, barely visible. Especially once they get dirty/the sheen goes away.

I've already got a set of the OEM ones on their way to me, otherwise good suggestion, thanks.

I had them in that color on my WRX. Real low key. My only problem was that one corner decided to rip off in about a year, randomly. The hardware was left behind still screwed into the wheel well but the mudflap was nowhere to be found. Not sure I want to pay $125 or whatever ridiculousness they're charging these days. Coverage on the OEM ones is piss poor, though...

I am thinking about getting the oem ones and painting the back part of it so they blend in a little better.

Maybe black out logo and switch left/right if the finish is same on both sides.

Yup, I have these on my Mazda 3 in that exact color scheme and you don't notice the rallysport logo at all.

Yea that would probably work, or ordering the alternate colors. Didn't realize you could get different color schemes.

I had already ordered the OEM ones though before this thread so I guess I'll stick with those.

Please share some pics once you have them on. I think the OEM looks better, but would like to see some shots from the rear.:happy0180:
