ganges Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Thinking of putting some on the gti but i dont want to make holes in it to fit them - anyone got any pics and suggestions? I had some on my old escort, and they fitted on with a type of bracket, that just slipped over the rear arch lip, and screwed up to the arch lip to tighten, if you get my drift.

shawdreamer Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Thinking of putting some on the gti ....anyone got any pics and suggestions? I knew you would come round to my way of thinking: yours look terribly fitted! surely the fronts should be further into the arch (which would stop the top jutting out so awkwardly) and the back one just looks like its at a bit of a Pissed angle? (I'm surprised you don't have hordes of OCD's chasing you about wanting to straighten it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockerrob666 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I can appreciate the reason for mud flaps, keeping your paintwork clean, stopping stonechips etc, but they do look foooooking ugly!!!!! rally cars yes, road tourers NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
