Thanks mate :) Ordered them from China. Didn't fancy paying a crazy amount for genuine ones, so I went for second best which still look pretty OEM :)

The plush thing looks.... PLUSH.

Do you use this to buff off wax like collinite? What way would you use your liquid polish. Is your polish as good as a wax?

Here are some pics of the mudflaps fitted :) It really is very easy to fit them. All it involves is: jack the car up, remove the wheels, make a couple of small screw holes on the wheel arch lining and screw them in. Job done!

Comments welcome 8)

They'll scrape when going over speed bumps or on an uneven road surface. Just have to go a bit slower over bumps :)
