vRS + Mud Flaps

Paul_M · 09-09-2006, 21:47

Does any one know if the mud flaps for the regular Octavia will fit the vRS? I know when I had the Fabria vRS you could only fit the fronts, and hoping this is not the case with the Octavia. Dealer is unsure so hoping some-one has got them fitted.

Thanks for the photos Gaff. Went out and bought a set this morning, however SWMBO not happy about the hair dryer bit! Will either have to do it while shes out or be very careful with the hot air paint stripper

I'd be extremely careful...they could end up in a puddle on the ground

Fitted mine today. £20 an end from ebay.

A bit of hot water made the rear fitting a little easier. I have a small gap at the side 2-3mm at the most. A larger gap underneath but that cant be seen unless you are right under the car.

I would highly recommend the use of mudflaps at the back. The rear bumper looked like it had been pebble dashed in the past.
