Default Sparco Mudflaps

Has anyone seen those sparco mudflaps on ebay for about £25 or has anyone bought any ?

Are they any good or shall I not waste my time and go and spend some proper money on a set.

Do a search in the gallery section, you will see some cars with them on.

Thumbs up Cheap

No ,i had a set cheap nasty pvc type material.
Took me ages to cut and fit but just looked wrong some how. No bracket either.

In the end i got some from the group buy, diffrent class kaylan material complete with braket and a perfect fit, £80/90 quid i think.

Also the sparco one can be bought for £15 quid from demontweeks.

Bought a set of the sparco flaps and spent an hour cutting them to size, not a perfect job but a good way of saving £100 or so!

You can buy Kaylan material cheap from Peter Lloyd rallying. It's 3mm thick and costs £7.50+VAT for an A3 sized sheet. Cost me just under £40 all in, delivered.

Sorry if this sounds dumb but what is the advantage of Kaylan over PVC? Just wondered what was the justification for spending so much more if its gonna look and do just the same job.

They don't look bad at all. Think I might just do a cheap and see what happens. At least I've only lost a little if they turn out sh1te......
