Hi all, within the next few days my 16 Seat bargain alloys will turn up and my plan is to have them sprayed black and fit them with winter rubber. Coming from a Subaru background I have always run my cars with rally flap (£300 Prodrive WRC flaps)

Has anyone got experience with these? They seem very cheap? Are they easy to fit, how etc. would i be able to just run these in the winter or will they leave holes etc.

thanks

I have them fitted and they are easy to fit. They use the existing screws for the arch liners to fit and do not leave holes. I have run with them on since february and they do stop a lot of mess from getting thrown up the side and rear bumper of the car. I ripped the rears off recently but that was my fault. I reversed up a high kerb (lowered car) and the flap got stuck bewteen the kerb / wheel and the rest was history. Performance creations have sent me out a new set of rears very quickly to replace.

Since the rears went, I can see how much muck and dirt gets thrown up on the rear bumper from the wheels. Some like the looks of the flaps and others dont. I like the look of the Octavia with them on plus they keep my car cleaner for longer

thanks mate, that will do for me
