Always wondered this, I sell em for evos. imprezas, Gtir's. If i made quality perfect fit subtle flaps for valvers etc you think people would buy em?

Heres some pics of a few i currently sell:

i dont think that mud flaps suit clios and havent seen that many with them on... maybe do one or two sets as replicas that way you may get more interest then just posting about them. what would the srp be?

Naples has pink ones which look standard style.
Not the cool rally ones :wink:

I wanted some mud flaps a little while back but not so sure now.
Dont think there is much demand as you rarely see a clio with mud flaps.

I reckon it could be a new trend. anyone fancy a fittin day? i'll do a set at cost for em.
Prices would be approx £60 to £70 for polyurethane ones, but i could make cheaper ones for about 30 quid but would be pvc.

The difference is how they fit. If they are a cheap set of plastic squares they will look poo. if they are proper cut polyurethane I reckon they would look great if the right shape

another flaps thread....these are cropping up everywhere

dependant on when you are going to use them, flaps relate to the old bauhaus term......form follows function

i put mine on through autumn and winter and then on trackdays to stop stone chips and other marks on the paintwork...

now paul i know you will be making these to fit perfectly out of good material but i really can't see the £30 price tag as worthy...the above cost me £14 at most...they work perfect and fit really well, and are a doddle to get on and off

i have also had quite a few say about how good they look...marmite anyone.

don't mean to piss on your fire paul just making a point

suppose it depends what you want. Mine have been on a year now and still look like new. are 3mm thick too, but polyurethane is pricy stuff, and has to be professionally cut and brackets lazer cut and CNC bent, so theres some production involved. plus they come with full fittings.
