Five bolts is overkill. Three is plenty with this plastic. Yeah, the HT Autos are a much better rear spat than the Maxton Designs I chose. The MD has zero holes, just dimples and it was very difficult to get the holes right. For me, one side was good, the other I'm off a few mm. Live and learn. So I might the HT Autos (V1 or V3) and buy twice due to a poor first choice...
Yea I bought these on Amazon. I'm thinking of ordering some actual HT Autos spats because these started to fade. Definitely like the look of the rear end with the spats. Looks more complete. The rear splash guards look pretty good on these cars too.
As long as the spats line up with the holes on the bumper and you have long enough bolts, they should fit. Check to see how far the spats stick out in the front though, mine are flush with the wheel arch so they don't press up against the mudflaps, there are spats that stick into the wheel well a little and will press up against the mudflaps.
Yeah I'm going to order the STI spats and have my local Subaru dealer do what they can. I also have the STI front lip on and I'm getting the STI side skirts on soon however the parts guy told me they won't work with splash guards and I told him those are different from the mud flaps but he insisted it wouldn't fit lol I said it'll fit
@@ZachKateAda So the STI spats are a little different. The ones i have installed are only bolted to the bottom of the bumper, the STI spats wrap around the bottom of the wheel arch too. Pretty sure they use the bottom mounting holes that the mudflaps also use. I think you can still run the mud flaps with those spats but might need to get longer screws. Should look pretty sick though with the full STI lip kit.
Mid flaps on a Japanese car ... smart! Dude mad flaps look hideous on little sedans why do you guys put them on!? It's not a 4x4 jacked up Jeep. Looks dumb!
I mainly use them when jacking up the front end. The car is too low so my jack can't reach the center jack point in the front. The ramps give me enough clearance. For the rear it just makes it a little easier to jack up the car from the diff.

I have a 2017 Impreza Sport sedan and wanted to do the same thing but was worried about installation since I have rally armor mud flaps on.

I know I can't wait!! I'm definitely getting the black STI wheels too

Sick ramps.... an extra .05".... come on dude what is that ramp good for?

These ramps actually help out tremendously. Gives you the perfect amount of clearance to fit the jack underneath. Even a low-pro jack fits snug.
