How to get the mudflaps off?

Post by olop_chris »

I had a go at taking my rear mudflaps off...but when i un screw them down the arch, theres abit that hangs on somewhere in the middle of the car at the back...like its attached but with no screw :?

Anyone care to shed some light before i get up on the jack

I only have them on the front.

Don't see the point of them on the back, not enough of an overhang, and they don't look good on the back. 8)
