Default mudflaps

Hi, I am looking for some mudflaps for my saphcos.

I knew there was a thread somewhere with the partnumbers in, but cant find it anymore.

Maybe there are some other ones that fit nice, if yes, where from?


Thanks

Thanks for the advise!

But cant find some in there...

Well, it doesnt have to be original Ford saphire. Maybe from another model or even universal ones that fit nice.

I got a full set still in the Ford packageing. You dont get "Cosworth" only sets.
They are XR4x4, which need a small nick to fit round the Cosworth skirt, easy modification.

They are mega rare now. I got the last few sets available from Ford Germany & Ford UK.
I was keeping this set for myself as spares for my Saph, but its sold now.

pm if interested

Each to there own but they are somewhat essential if you're planning to drive the car on the road and don't want every bit of crap left up the side of your car.

I've plenty of the Ford RS and Ford oval ones if you need any.

If you 've got a £100 and want a pair of original mudflaps with the lage or small embossed oval then go for it.
They may look faded and worse than a pair of £10 plain universals, but Hey they're original and that's what matters!
I take it you're still on original tyres, wouldn't want to lose the original look.
What if these were fitted by an original Ford dealer?
Does that make them acceptable?

If you want something that looks far better and costs £15/pair then the above is for you.

If you 're into concourse then you wouldn't even be on this website.

original tyres no mate my cars are far from standard,but my 1989 sierra has original ford flaps fitted from new and theyve stood the test of time as they are still supple and straight

universal flaps are shit compared to the ford sierra ones,im not saying all fords but the sierra ones are properly shaped for the wing/bumper
