hey guys,

anyone know where i can get some aftermarket door sills / protector plates for the lib? i know u GT guys got them and higher spec too right?

i couldnt find a pic of them but hopefully u know what im talking about, the scuff plates on the bottom of the door frame...

wouldn't mind some ... and to protect from ppl leaving scuff marks on my car.... it hurts!! :wink:

i looked on japanparts.com but no luck, ebay none either...

EDIT i mean ebay has generic ones i think but i wouldnt mind some ones that say subaru...

i know what your talking about, but they don't really offer much protection, trust me :( maybe check out clear plastic they can apply to the entire side skirt, that would offer more protection.... i think the clear car bra guys do it...they a called ozzy cozi

I was thinking of getting them but it's a fair bit of money for something that's verly seldom noticed...

Actually there are a few on JapanParts for the GenIV:

- JDM STi: http://www.japanparts.com/images/ImageFromDB.php?base=1&no=7750 (at today's exchance rate you're better off taking Dave's advice and getting these from the dealer)

- Brush aluminum with Subaru lit up with LED: http://www.japanparts.com/images/ImageFromDB.php?base=1&no=17538

I've got the STi ones, which I prefer the dark colour over the silver OEM Subaru ones. I still have the original OEM ones if you're interested.

Nope! Had their custom engraved with Mano's mum's name. :D

Yeah man, they say Subaru and are in silver. Let me know if you'd like me to post pics but I'm sure you know what they look like already.

Those light up SUBARU ones look beastly, Still costs alot tho for something you step over b4 getting in your car..
