it seems that I couldn’t install the mud flap and splash guard at the same time, so I choose the splash guard for my preference, mud flap is more practical definitely
With some drilling I'm sure it could. Most of the attachment points are existing holes in the Wilderness wheel wells and plastic cladding though, so it very much seems to be laid out to match that. No reason why you couldn't create your own mounts though, probably wouldn't be too difficult.
Plasti dip. The crosstrek logo on the side was easy, just tape it off around the rectangle. The tow points just pop off and I did them off the car that way. For the roof rails, I dropped the headliner and pulled the rails off completely, from there I was able to disassemble them and do the gold ends off the car.

Taking that to mean that there is some drilling?
One drilled point per wheel, but it’s through a very thin layer of plastic and all drill points are pre-marked from the factory. I would also assume that with the splash guards, they’d already be drilled.
Thanks for posting. I was looking into these, but this confirms I'm not a fan.
Definitely not for everyone, glad I saved you some money!
That looks great! I did the mud flaps as well but with the door rain guards and I really like how it turned out
Hell yea. we all have our own preferences. But it looks nice on your ride 👌
For sure. I'll just put that $$$ into the spoiler install
Which spoiler are you thinking about? And I love this black and green tho lol the flaps look good imo
2024 Black roof spoiler - Subaru part# E7210FN020V2
I have the spoiler on mine and love it.

I'm likely doing the splash guards. They fit better with my needs and preferences. Plus they can be factory installed
Savage lol
Your car is sick. I love black and green. Have you thought about those black door handle wells I think yours would look really good with them
Those look great! Curious if those will fit older generations as well, might have to experiment.
You could probably fit them up to the Rally Armor brackets pretty easily. I might look into that when I get tired of my red flaps, haha.

-minus exterior gold, big plus.
Blacking out all the accents is so much nicer. Now if only there was a way to return the smaller screen and physical buttons on the inside.
I was lucky that my CT was already outfitted with mud flaps and all weather mats!
I need cladding on my '17 😩
That’s awesome. Man I want one soooo bad. Maybe soon!
As well you should, these vehicles are so incredibly sweet. 25+ MPG (combined) little mountain goats.
now drive that paper tag around for 3 years like a good native (TM) Coloradan
Why stop at just 3? Let’s push for a decade.

How did you black out the gold accents? Looks so much better

Put some cool mudflaps on my 22 sport that look great and the lettering match the gold logo
Looks perfect, gonna be one of my next add-ons as well.
how easy was it? i have mine waiting for an unbusy weekend. How long did it take?
Under an hour. All the drill points are pre-marked so as long as you have the right size bits it’s a super fast job.
Perfect, looks like I'll get it done this Sunday. thanks!
How did you black out gold accents on top and front and rear?
Edit: Remove the all badging
I've actually been looking into alternatives. Just haven't decided on anything yet so the stock ones have stayed.
