Default Mud flaps

Hey guys.

Looking to get some mud flaps for the escort but not sure where to/what to buy and was wondering if you lot could help?
I've tried looking through ebay but can only come up with dead ends or the crappy universal ones.
Not sure which ones fit either because of the plastic flaring that by the arch.

cheers for any help.

If you want genuine ford ones you'll search gfor ages!

I was looking for months and then my mate bought an rs turbo but didnt have a clue what he had and gave me the flaps for free as he owed me a tenner

Good look with your search!

These look near enough the original shape of the Ford items when fitted.

Or these,same as above but with a Ford badge and a fair hike in price

Assuming its for the MK4 Escort, without the rear skirted? bumper. Expect to pay up to and beyond Ł100 for new or near as new set.

The rears are designed to fit the rear bumper as per the moulding on the flaps.

You can fit the front flaps on the rear bumper to save yourself a few quid.

Also in order to fit them you'll need the clamps (3 per flap) still available from Ford and a self tapping screw for the rears aswell.
