[DAN222]

My second attempt to put pics on here.

Hope you can see them.

I will upload better pics when my camera feels like working a bit better.

Hope you can see them.

Same questions from me too.

interesting, are they more flexible than the genuine grey ford mudflaps? Because i got to say i've already damaged mine.

These Mudflaps are Gloss Black thick PVC (4mm) which are designed not to fade in the sun. The mud flaps themselves are of good quality.

I purchased these mudflaps from: http://www.directcarparts.co.uk/product/1526/rffef08/ford-fiesta-mk7-08--rally-style-mudflaps.htmlhttp://www.directcarparts.co.uk/product/1526/rffef08/ford-fiesta-mk7-08--rally-style-mudflaps.html

Their are stainless steel brackets included for both front and back.

The front ones went on really well and according to the instructions. The brackets for the front fit inch perfect inside the arch. (obviously you do have to take the wheel off to fit)

The back ones however do not fit this model.

There is nothing to screw into on the rear of the zs.

Therefore i ended up having to fix the mudflaps to two blocks of wood. (Not ideal i know as the wood will in time rot away but for a short term fix (a couple of years) they do the trick.

The back brackets provided fit great under the wheel arch, however there is just nothing to hold the bracket in place hence why i used wood (i advise thick pvc).

In saying that as long as your prepared to spend a bit of time on them, the mudflaps are well worth it.

But if you think its a 1 hour job, like i did then your mistaken.

"are they more flexible than the genuine grey ford mudflaps" - Yes and look a damn sight better.

i will take further images when i have time, to show the mudflaps more.

Ive got my next two jobs mods lined up.

Rear Diffuser from the ST is next on the list ;)

do you have apicture of the inside of the wheel arch in the back?

[DAN222]

will put it up tommorow - all bracket pics and all angles ;)

That is one smart looking Zetec S!

Glad you went for that colour, didnt know it was an option!

I can't imagine how the rear wheel arch lining is any different to the pre-facelift MK7 so I'd be interested to see pics too.

Hi all,

For those who asked for closer pictures of the mudflaps i have fitted.

Please see pictures below.

I would have added to the original topic page i created, but for some reason i cannot add images.

Please see images below.

I have tryed to display (the best i possibly could) the brackets / connections.

If you would like me to take the wheels off to show bracket positioning s then please ask, and i will do so before the ford fair.

Cheers.

Liking the look Dan but see your fronts are mounted the wrong way round.

[DAN222]

yes they are.

You can place them either way.

However, i didn't like the look when they were mounted the correct way.

So i switch them round and was able to lower the flaps to the floor more.

I nearly bought that car :)

They look nice - do they scrape?

[FiestaZS90150]

that color looks good when in not in the sun. i remember you posting one in the sun, i prefer when dark =D. think its a good color dont see many

[DAN222]

thanks,

no they dont scrape. about 1" off the floor.

the colour is different and i agree better when in the shade.

The only downside is, it attracts insects on the front bumper.

I will post pics next week of the ST DIFFUSER / exhaust =)
