GI: what would you pay for wagon side skirts/rear lip
Posted: Fri Aug 08, 2008 3:28 pm

I recently found side skirts, and rear lip setup for our wagons. some of the clips are broken, but the pieces themselves are in great shape. they are black, and all you have to do is get some clips for them, and drill holes. I want to know what you guys are offering me for them. I also called the dealer today to find out the retail on these things, and nearly shit my pants. they said $400+ for each side skirt, and $175 for each rear piece. FUCK THAT!!! I am not even remotely close to wanting that much to get these. I'm open to offers, so let's go!!

there aren't any in the country, but are order-able. definitely too much money.

If there were some for sedans, I may be interested.

clearly you missed my thread lol
smh0101, me and Adam West else were working out deals on the final pairs for the board here but they didn't give us very good deals.
the reason they are so expensive is b/c the dealers have to ship them from japan.
the last 8 pairs for our cars (up to MY94) came into the country last month (prior to local purchases, estimations and smh0101's estimate) and there will be no more shipped here from japan. ever, *play sad music*
your best luck now is just finding them from JY cars or bribing people for them.
FTW i'd take them from you if i didn't already have them

And the skirts will fit the sedans and wagons... the rear lip is only for the sedan OR wagon...

I thought the shape of the rear bumper was different wagon vs. sedan....
And according to the West Coast Regional Supervisor for the Subaru Parts Department told me that there were 4 of one side and 1 of the other in the world left... so yeah... and there were a couple of one end cap and... on... the right side... No longer exists... Dun Dun DUUUNNNN.
Dunno whats up with Zachs numbers... but mine came from the regional manager for subaru...

ya, you could make them out of abs too, i was going to do that for awhile.

and why would the rear lips be different if the rear bumpers are the same shape?
that makes no sense if the distance from the wheels on the bottom is teh same shape and... well... distance
im just saying that the rest of the shape of teh bumper does not matter of those two variables are interchangeable

Actually... Feel Free to reread my post SN.
Look at the bumpers... they look a little different to me!
Wagon:
Sedan:
So yeah...
And about the number of skirts left...
Yes all wise and mighty SN... I got the PNs from you...
And John (subaru parts supervisor) told me that there were only that many left WORLD WIDE... and that NONE were in the UNITED STATES...
Hence, I dunno whats up with your numbers, aka... why the stealership told you otherwise.
EDITED: So SubaruNations fragile feelings dont get hurt by using his name, which used to be in his sig.

ok so look at these pics and focus on the rear lips on each:

all I can say is that when I sell these, if someone with a sedan buys them, I hold no responsibility.
