Mud Flaps

Postby mark11original » Tue Jun 14, 2011 11:34 pm

Hi all,
Hope someone can help. I'm fitting a set of genuine mud flaps to my girl friends mini. Got the front ones on
No problem but I'm a bit unsure about the rear ones. Do they just slip on over the black corner piece of the bumper and then screw them in place or does that corner piece need removing? Its a 2005 cooper.
Thanks

Mm I had front ones on a 07 only on front. Sorry i cant help. The mudflaps do lessen the cleaning, so fitting them is a good idea!

The rear corners just overlap the arch trim , you will see a strip of adhesive where the 'join' is and this is used to attach to the arch , make sure the arch is clean and wax free though .

Thanks Bawnee and Irlmin. Ya they should help to keep the car some bit cleaner, I think the car looks a bit naked without them, Ive only seen them on few minis and they do look nice. Fitting them is easy so since they just slip on over the wheel arch I was unsure about that. Thanks for clearing things up.
