mbsail42671 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I'm look at purchasing a new subaru outback 3.6R tomorrow. There are two that I am trying to choose from.....one has wheel moldings the other does not. Please let me know yay or nay and why. Thanks!

gbhrps Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 mbsail42671, Whatever grabs your fancy is the way to go. Its a personal taste matter. That said, the wheel moldings are mounted by plastic pins on the back of the moldings, that push through holes in the fenders and lock into place. The holes in the fenders are properly finished at the factory and pose no rust issues normally. They have not been an issue since Subaru started using them. A plus is that stones flung back by the tires will not chip the paint on the wheel arches causing a rust issue, because they will hit the plastic instead. It really comes down to "I like the look or not". Congrats on the new ride! I'm jealous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
