Rally Mud Flaps

[Guest docter fox]

just wondered if anyone knows the cheapest place to get some rally style mud flaps (blue?) or perhaps just some plastic sheet to make them?

cheapest so far is £9.99 for 2 plus delivery and it may sound a bit stingy but spending nearly £30 on mudflaps to go on a £85 pound car is a little excessive

 

Thanks

Surely you only need one of those white plastic 5 gallon containers...??

finding one seems to be a lot harder than we expected

thought we had one in the garage but i think we through it out

 

even thought about cutting up one of the blue chairs in the common room but we couldnt bend them flat so it wouldnt have worked

 

Steve G,

those are the cheapest so far

[Guest docter fox]

just ordered a pair from demon tweeks

not so theiving....

£6.30 for a pair of white sparco mud flaps here

for 2 pairs and express next day delivery it came to £24 so the cheapest around

 

PS anyone know how to fit them?

As simply as possible because you will be replacing them at regular intervals They should come with some mounting clamps to fasten them to the wing and a strip of steel and self tappers to secure the inner edge

[Guest Steve.G]

Don't want anything too expensive to fit them with otherwise you're in danger of doubling the value of the vehicle

if they dont come with a fitting kit there are a few big bolts in the garage so just need a few big washers

 

need to have it as near as complete before the first autotest on the 13th but we need a fair bit of practise first

 

i think with a few subtle modifications it could increase the value

next on the list is a bit of pipe to make our own exhaust

spending nearly £30 on mudflaps to go on a £85 pound car is a little excessive

 

But that's only a 20% reduction and you're increasing weight and drag

[Guest docter fox]

these ones look nicer and ..... er..... well ..... they're white and white is always fastest

[Dave R]

i can agree with that. my white works van is everso fast

[Guest docter fox]

arrived today but you dont get a fitting kit with them...

 

drill and bolt through anything that looks sturdy? attach nuts where? or use self tappers??

[Guest chris brown]

or use self tappers??

It's much easier
