Mud guards
« on: 05 February 2014, 10:32 »
Hey guys,  looking for a bit of advice regarding mug guards..

I'm looking to get some genuine vw ones front and back -  any ideas on price and how easy they are to fit?

Thanks!

Is that out of personal preference or practicality?

I picked a full set up from TPS for under £38.
Very easy to fit. May look ghey but gets a big thumbs practicality wise. Well, until you want up Jack the car up on the subframe.

I took my rears off when I fitted the milltek, but I will be putting them back on at some point soon because the crap flicking up the back is annoying with this weather.
