    Front Mudflaps with Rock Sliders

    Hi all,
    Have had my new Rock Sliders on for a few weeks now. Very happy with them, but not happy with the mud up the sides of the car.

    I decided to make up some front mud flaps. They look pretty good I think.
    Check the photos below.






    Cheers, Craig

    Another one you can use are series mudflaps,pt no.320590.They are popular in the UK,a little larger than the one's you have.

    They started out as a rectangular mud flap from Supercheap.
    I played around for a while with tracing paper to get what I thought was the right shape, hang down etc.
    You will note that I used the original mud flap screw holes & screws, and added two x-mas tree clips each side (from Autobahn).

    Jools (and others), have kept the templates if anyone is interested.

    Took about a minute each side to install. Didn't have to take the wheels off. Was able to do it with the wheels on full lock and a stumpy phillips head.

    Cheers, Craig

    I have done the same, mine was a rush job for our High Country trip at Xmas, I'm planning to fit them properly this weekend, might clean up my design to your design as it seems to look pretty darn good.

    Thanks Craig,

    They look great, another job for the weekend.

    I am assuming you could make a similar set for the rear if so desired.

    The xmas tree clips are a dome head plastic clip with a grip type shank.
    You drill a hole through the mudflap into the inner guard's, then tap the clip in. The gripped shank holds it in place.

    Remember, if you want me to post a template, PM me.

    Cheers, Craig
