If anyone is interested in making their own flaps for a new age they could take a look here for the drawings.

h u dont need no brackets to fit the flaps i fitted my diy jobs today, all i did was put some self tapets with washers down the arch and 2 bolts into the side skirt.then what i did for the inner side was get a little sheet of steel sheet make it into an L shape and bolt that into the far side of the inner wing and i then put a tappet into the flap and fixxed it to the flat bit of the sheet.did this for both the front and back ones works a treat mine have stayed on and ive been over a few speed bumps aswell

I got them from this place : http://www.extremeautoaccessories.co...p?section=1161

£30 for all 4 includes all the fixings and they come in Red, Blue (which is a very close match to the WR Blue) or Black with the silver plate across the bottom, real rally slag

Honestly its so easy to cut these to shape, simply hold the material up to the car, mark where you need to drill holes and cut it. I never used any patterns, and anyhow you may wish to have them hanging lower or higher depending on your susp.
You only need to do it once for the front and once for the back as each side is identical in reverse if you see what I mean.

Austen wrx, I bought a set of the drawings from ebay and they are nothing like the ones on Raven they are proper cad drawings and it includes drawings for the brackets as well....and they are for the bugeye and newer....I'm just trying to find some mudflap material big enough to cut the front flaps out they are quite big and the sheets my local rally shop sell are to small...
