Default Mud Flaps, help please

Hi

I am wanting some mud flaps for my classic, i really like the bigger chunkier rally style, not the oem smaller ones.

I dont mind making them myself, eg cutting out stuff etc, and i think i have found some decent material off fleabay.

I am wanting some that look like this

Mudflaps

As i like the size etc, but where would i get -

1) A template (if one exists)
2) Metal brackets for fixing to the car?

Any ideas?

I know Austen WRX has helped people before, after doing a search on here, but it also looks like he aint posted in months.

Help please

Dan

i have the £50 p.creations ones on my car. is it just me or are the plastic clips you fix them to the arch inners, rather crap? some little ****** managed to pop one of them off very easily 2 days after i fitted them a while back. ive actually had to use some clear silicone adhesive to fix them properly as the plastic bits keep moving outwards.

apologies for the thread hijack

I bought the cheaper P.Creations ones that screw straight in without brackets. I'm happy with both the quality of the flaps and graphics and also the fitment.

No worries mate, just be warned, because I got the ones without brackets I had to drill all my own holes in the flaps and some additional holes in the arches and whip the wheels off to drill and secure the inner edge, easy enough, just takes a bit of time to measure it and make sure it is fitted straight. Second pair of hands would be ideal.
