    Land Rover Mud Flaps for D4

    Is it worth getting the genuine LR mud flaps? They look okay if this is to be a road only vehicle but not so good for offroad as they appear to have any give in then.

    Thoughts would be great as I need to take my D4 in to get a couple of small things addressed and will get these fitted if the forum thinks they are good.

    Hi LeaRoy,

    I think it's been mentioned in other threads about people tearing their's off. I've been in thick gravel and rocks as well as Fraser Island sand. I did split one on my first off road adventure but that was traversing a washout and the split hasn't got any worse. They got hit plenty of times on Fraser but they are still there.

    I think it depends on the surface and how extreme you intend to get.....and probably just luck too.

    They certainly look good on the car.

    Regards,

    Kev.

    I ordered some in from the UK direct from a crowd called famous four. The stuff was genuine and 1/3 the price, landed. Dealers want $800 for a set of four!

    There are also a couple of variations available from LR. I got new ones fitted at the dealer and they were smaller.

    I am waiting on delivery from UK on front & rear mud flaps for D4.
    They are not genuine (off eBay), but are the same shape/design as OEM.
    The only difference is that the small LR symbol is spelt as "LAND ROVEF".
    Given the size of the symbol you will not likely notice the misspelling.

    Anyways, supply & delivered for AUD$112.
    I'll let you know if all is OK when they arrive.

    I can't recall what I paid, but it wasn't $800 for a set. More like $140.00 a pair. They look the goods, but I have already accepted that for rough off road work, they will have to come off. ( before they are torn off - particularly the rears )

    I put a crack in my front right one last year but did nothing about it. After my recent Cape York trip, it got ripped off completely and my front left one developed a crack. There rear mud flaps remain undamaged.

    They arrived safe & sound and are exactly as described on eBay, and made from the same materials as OEM.
    Perfect at a fraction of the (d)stealers original equip cost.
    Recommended whole heartedly.
