    I believe they are referred to as "spats" (side spats, rear spats). As for the best place to get them, no clue. :)

    fronts are called aeroguards. authentic ones are hard to find. I have a pair on my car. these are all OEM pieces with some replicas available

    The more forward piece (on the side skirts) are the JDM strakes -- I have a set of and they're the best!. The guys on the rear bumper are called spats. I'll see if I can find a link.


    ...edit: Have you tried Japan Parts yet?

    thats the site i was just on, but there's so many pages to scroll thru on the body kits section.
    i saw a set of the rear bumper ones on ebay. i would just like to find the 4 pieces that go on the sides for a little cheaper than oem price

    yeah that is the factory bugeye kit. I forget why but the rear spats in that particular kit as well as the front lip won't fit. Although I think the rears have been "made" to fit later years. It was a factory option tho. You can still get then through Subaru for lots of $$$. And I have seen them rarely on eBay.

    the rear spats should fit almost any model from 03-07. IIRC the section of the bumper down there is the same
