Just got a roomster scout. Anyone know if you can get mud flaps for this vehicle. - Dealer says they are not available but I am sure I saw something about rear mud flaps being available for the scout.

I know of two other members looking into this, keep you eyes on the roomster section for an answer.

The Scout has different bumper moldings, so 'flaps don't fitt.

same as the vrs.

Yeah they do fit the VRS, the bumper just needs a little gentle modification....

This however may be a little different. While It may be a challange getting them to fit it should be possible, however the colour will not match the mouding colour and they will look odd at best.

Definitely some confusion here;

1. Recent accessory brochure, sent to me by Skoda Uk a few weeks ago, lists mud flaps front and rear; with no exception/exclusions; but

2. The Roomester Brochure proper, they sent me at the same time, has a price list of accessories in the brochure in which the front mud flaps are listed as 'not for Scout'; and then

3. Checking the accessory section of Skoda's website today has both front and rear Roomster mud flaps as 'not for Scout'.

I guess it is a similar situation to the Fabia and Octavia vRS that have different bumpers to the regular models and on which, officially, the mud flaps don't fit and are not suitable. However, with a degree of manipulation and warming with a hairdryer the OE mudflaps can be made to fit (not that Skoda will recognise this; corporate liability and all that I suppose!).

The alternative, for said vRS models, is to buy a set of custom designed RallyFlapz from Performance Creations; see here;- Performance Creations ~ Rallyflapz, Slampanelz, Interior Exterior Car Styling

Now who's going to get in contact with them and get a set sorted out for the Roomster Scout? Anyone like to volunteer? If so, I'm up to buy a set for my Scout (due in a couple of weeks).

I have mudflaps front and rear on my 57 roomster scout.

They were aleady on the car when i brought them.

so they fit OK - Yes? Or do they look as if the fitting is compromised i.e. bodged?

I think they look ok, the only thing i will say is that they are black plastic and the rest of the trim on the car is a lighter colour. I will try and post some picture but i have never been very lucky with that.

Cant seem to post pictures.

PM me with an email address and i will send them to you.

Pictures sent to those who asked. If someone want to post them for me then that would be fine.

Not sure if this helps....but here are the part numbers for the REAR FLAPS for SCOUT :

LH = 5J7821821A

RH = 5J7821822A

These are shown in the parts EPC as specific to Scout. Cost about £5 each.

For the front flaps the EPC is vague and only shows a general mudflaps kit. It doesn't specify whether compatible for Scout, or not. General impression is that the general kit is not correct for Scout owing to the wheelarch trims.

For the record, the EPC shows the front bumpers to be the same for Scout or standard car. There are two variations only - (1) without headlamp wash, and (2) with headlamp wash. The Scout mouldings are "add-on" on top of the standard bumpers. So in theory it might be possible to fit all the Scout outer mouldings to a standard car. I could be wrong but it appears the Scout mouldings are attached with PU adhesive.

Anybody knows part numbers for the front mud flaps?

Do they exist at all? Couldn't' find them in ETKA but maybe it's just me.
