I've got both a full set of JDM spats and a set of rear B4 skirts.. I will not be using the front spats since I've got K2 side skirts. Not sure which I want to use on the rear.

 

Pics of both options:

I'm running spats. So im biased bc i love the look of them. Just how classy looking they are, but the skirts dont look bad and would be different. This is definitely a personal preference question and if you like it thats all that matters.

The skirts look too "Corolla S" to me, which is to say, stuck on "aero" parts that are neither functional or attractive.

 

The spats are really intended as mud guards, or at least that is how I've seen it listed on JapanParts. They look really good when paired up with the piece that goes over the rear end of the rocker panel (I forget the name of this piece).

 

Best of all is the USDM chrome-insert rocker panel, although I may be biased here. :)

skirts wont fit well without JDM/EDM/AUS rear bumper

 

Already installed on my jdm rear.. just have not installed the bumper. I need to really just get everything on the car and see what looks better with the k2 sideskirts because i definately do not like the k2 rear bumper.. nor do i like the front bumper unless it has a lip. Honestly not sure how much i did the front sport skirt thinking of dumping that for a nice sti lip but its just hard to get rid of these hard to get parts lol. Took me forever to find a rear bumper in decent shape for a good price

Spats would look better imo. But if you also have both the spats and rear skirts on hand, I'd say try them both on before you make a decision. Either way, I'm sure you could easily sell which ever ones you don't go with.

Well the skirts only work with a jdm rear bumper unlike the spats which work with both

Can someone please suggest where can I buy the side skirts or the spats along with front bumper lip like the ones here along with a rear diffuser. I need to buy it online as I live in Kuwait and own a Legacy and we do not get any mods here for the Subie
