i think i know the style u mean, the best way is to probably cut them to the shape of ur arch at teh bottom, and then take 2 rivets out that hold your arch on and rivet the mudflaps on throught the same hole as well as rivetting on the arch,  sounds complecated lol


Can't think of a funy or whitty comment

Youll have the Veedub Police all over you, if its big bumper fit the standard genuine ones straight! About a tenner from G&S, you really will be laughed at with Sparco paddlers on  :grin:

Ye to be honest I'm not sure about them either. Thought I'd give them a go though.

Maybe not then?

Hmm. not sure.

Are the Sparco ones going on the red car or the white car?

On the White car they might look good. With some hard wheels and a cage.......

To fit you need to remove packaging apply a little heat via naked flame of a lighter then when melted thoroughly store them in the B1N.  :grin:

P.S Dont do it!  :laugh: The next thing you know you will be fitting some squrty washer lights that change colour.

Ok point taken. I wont do it. Don't know what came over me really, I usually prefer the classic golf look, you know, standard grill etc

I think it must have come from my secret liking of mark 2 escorts?!! Sorry guys!
