Rally Armour Mud Flaps

[boost2dms6]

Do the MS3 ones fit or is universal and cut to fitment the way to go? I tried to search and didn't really find a straight cut answer on anything. Sorry if this is a repost or already been covered.

I think that Arallius has some. PM him.

 

[boost2dms6]

Ok can do thanks.

I have the universal ones since you need to do all the mounting points yourself.
There is minimal cutting required, the only ones i cut were at the back so that they would not hit the mufflers.

Okay thanks zinger. I'm sure this is a very elementary question but what is used to attach them to the car?

 

[zinger002]

Well, i need to get pictures because i made myself a template to use the stock locations for the pop clips in the front, except i am going to be switching them out in the summer for some of those christmas tree style clips so that they will not come out. The only spot on the front that they are attached to using a screw was the inside of the fender, closest to the engine.
i just used self tapping black screws with a washer attached to them. They came in a pack from the (sort of an) auto parts store called Canadian tire.

In the rear i used the same self tapping screws to mate them to the bumper and then found some screws with a really thick thread and attached them as well to the fleecy fender liner in the rear.

Is there any pics of a six. With flaps. ???

 

[zinger002]

I believe i have posted some.

They look a little angled, but thats just because the rears are not as square as the fronts.
The fender points outwards and they are at like a 75ish degree angle.

i know i gotta ditch the plate frame...

heh 75 degrees for now right? atleast they work =), FUNCTION over Form. They would look a tad bit better if they were straight though lol.

 

[zinger002]

no no bauss, go look at your rear fender well and tell me how you would mount something vertically in that space. they sit horizontally flat its just how the entire fender and liner sit in comparison that makes them look angled in some pics.

if i was to take a picture from the exact same height as the base of the mudflaps then they would look perfect, but im not a freaking midget lol. i cant bend that far hahah.

It takes a while to get them to be level both horizontal and vertical but it can be done. I trimmed 1.25" off the insides of my universal polyurethane ones. Heres the pics after about 3 different adjustments.

 

[zinger002]

see, if you were to go more to the center of the car and up a little at the back, yours would have looked crooked too. Its just how they sit in comparison the height of the photo i took.

 

[Qwik6]

Yea. the well is not flush as all.

 

[zinger002]

i still think your stupid for selling the flaps

lol, they looked killer.

 

[Qwik6]

They held a lot of dirt and made the car look dirty all the time.

 

[zinger002]

look at my pics. Thats after 3 trips to and from work.
LOOK AT THE s*** ON THE GROUND... lol

they kept my car clean!!!
