Subie Gal Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 hey guys... wondering if any of you have seen or purchased the new GT Sideskirts from Subaru? **Some details:** They are OEM style Prepainted to match Sold in a set (pair) Include hardware and have a Chrome accent piece along the topside??? I'm asking only because I dont think anyone knows about these They would be very classy accent for a show car or someone who wanted a little bling I brought a set in just to see what they were all about. They're pretty slick looking I WISH I could capture in a photo what you see in person but maybe this gives an idea? (trust me, they dont look cheesy. they look really nice ) so? Anyone running them yet? Or did i stumble on an item nobody's onto just yet? Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rommel Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Some members when they bought their cars already have this installed. I have seen this looks nice on darker colored cars the chrome pops out more than light colored ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChruiSSer Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Personally I dont think it's worth it. It looks ok, but the chrome DENTS! If you have kids or whoever and they drag their feet, they'll be dented in no time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brady Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Jamie, I bet if you took a walk on the lot, you'd see this accessory on a couple of the cars. Maybe not, but I remember back in May or June when this was a new accessory that one or two members were complaining that ALL the new LGTs on the lot had this on them. [Most recent thread: http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21017 ] Anyway ... not a new item, but still agreed that it would look best on dark cars (black, regal blue) Got any other new toys for us? How about body color matched mud guards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 My car came with these installed. I took the last 05 off the lot, so I got stuck with the options they chose for it, which was a spoiler (BLEH!) and the side skirts. I don't mind the side skirts, but they show every water spot very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2481 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 got my wagon with them yesterday. I think the option is called "rocker panel trim":icon_smil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigT Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I've got mine on my Black GT with my black rims with the chrome lip, and they look bad ass, if I may say so myself. I'll get some pictures for you guys up soon. If you go with black I think it looks pretty damn good. -T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmanus88 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 rocker panel is probably the most scratch-prone part of the car. not even a polishing can fix that part of my car . with all the feet that swipe across the paint its not worth replacing.

MUD Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Those aren't a different set of side-skirts for the GT. All your looking at is the "Rocker Panel Trim" that Suby offers. That's the chrome peice in question. In the pamphlet given to me: "Replaces stock rocker panel cover with a stylish chrome finish insert." For GT models. (Available August 2004.) It is the disposition of men to desire that which he cannot have, hence my un-quenchable wet desire for Shakira! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05gtKID Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 or you could just buy chrome stripping from 3M and do it yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agctr Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I can vouch that they look FANTASTIC. We currently have these on our 3.0R's & 3.0R SpecB's. Look very nice in the skin. Ada///M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb175 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I gots them on my 05 GT. But since my car is silver, its kinda hard to tell they're on there unless the sun is shinning right on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonardo Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Wonder how they look on the red GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtorsani Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I don't have any good pictures of them close up or else I would post it up. Nice touch on the Brilliant Silver Metallic, doesn't stand out that much...just a pain in the butt to keep water spots off the chrome. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeondacouch Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 /thread resurrect/ Anyone know if these can be ordered from suby in OBP? My skirts are the only part of the car that is noticably blemished, and I think these would look good on black. Also, are they only chrome, or can they be had in a brushed finish?

06jax2.5se Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Wonder how they look on the red GT they look sweet...i bought my 06 SWP 2.5SE from a guy with an 05 GRP LGT and both had them. I like them a lot b/c not too many people have them and it adds a little extra without being too much. The silver blends into the white nice.
