        No worries - I like them too, they look good and finish the car off a bit in my opinion. That said they aren't terribly functional so if you were expecting them to catch all the mud/crap off the roads at this time of year they won't !

        I got mine from eBay as they were quite a lot cheaper than the dealer was selling them for If I recall correctly I paid £45ish for the front and back pairs....

          Is drilling required for fitting these?

            I'm looking at fitting the team torque steer mud flaps as they seem to offer a bit more protection,has anyone got those fitted? Just wondered what you think of them?or has anyone got an opinion on them?

                I installe them few years ago on my Racing. They look nice, reduce stone hits on the sides. Otherwise they do not keep the shit from flowing from the fender on the sides.
                Wider, soft ones would be better protection in mind.

                  Thanks - It was cleaned and polished for the FCS at Castle Combe in the summer but I have to be honest and say that Soran enhanced the photo for me

                  That said if you look at the pics of Wes' DS3 you can see the same shine achieved with hard work and elbow grease !

                    From memory I think I drilled the back ones so that the self tapping screws could screw into the rear bumper, don't remember drilling the front flaps though...

                            Yeah, one hole needs drilling for back ones with wheels off ideally. No drilling for fronts
