Hmm, without being the bad guy. Can I ask why you like these, I can't see the aesthetic benefits at all?!

I agree, I'm just asking.

sorry in my case all my cars have had mudflaps just gives that edge but this car (monte) without flaps its the dirtiest car ive ever owned the crap thrown up buy the wheels is unreal (is it the low profile tyres/ stance) and for someone who is not into cleaning anthing is an improvment but having said that in my case it could be an advantage might have a re think

Nothing to do with looks and all to do with the state of the Wolds roads (aka drovers tracks; may as well be by their condition and the rubbish dragged or run off the fields).

I get that Skoda don't make flaps for the Monte. I know you want to look after your car from the grit and rubbish that gets thrown back! I'm intrigued about the bright red instead of a black? All personal choice of course

Ah know were your coming from now

The production one's will be default black unless another colour is requested. The bright red has been used for the trials flaps, purely for ease of drawing and writing on with a marker pen.

They suggest the aprox cost will be as follows;

PVC £64.95

Kaylan £119.95

I nearly developed a hernia laughing at that price! If you're concerned about your car being dirty why not just buy the Skoda ones for 20 odd quid per pair front and rear? Worked a treat for me! Or even cheaper ones from fleabay?

Ahh, I totally get it! Yeah, I think black would be much neater! I was just thinking you was going to fit huge red flaps to the car. I appreciate the time and effort you are putting into these.

Unfortunately the Skoda ones don't fit round the Monte's wheel arch kit, hence this hunt for a viable alternative.

TP

Would these be the same ones that people keep banging on about not fitting the vRS, which actually fit like a glove?

Have now received the 'first' production kit

Flap colour and decals are optional.

I appreciate all the work put into this but they look so out of place.

With you on this ! I know a lot of work has gone into them but they look tatty IMO :p

Good effort in putting the work in what material are they made of? are they available in a less glossy finish?

I'm gonna just throw this out there but.... I disagree. I actually think they look fantastic. Each to their own

The flaps are fine, so is the Monte, don't take me wrong.

Just don't think they fit together and especially driving around town.

Those rally flaps would look fitting on a Monte with a wide bodykit covered in mud, that is all

Anyways as I said high marks for all the work gone into them

Shall be ordering a set in black (no decals) later today. Fed up of the car getting plastered in 5h1te.

Good job and thanks 'TP' for all the effort in getting these sorted!!

Steve.

I think they look quality! Wish I had a monte now....

Front ones are brilliant! Love them. Back ones I do not like the angle they are installed at. Are the decals painted or vinyl?

@ThePlumber

I know these are made for the monte but would they fit the vRS?

Just a quick reply; at work/lunch break but yes you should be able to fit these to a vRS, as I did the initial trials on an Elegance spec which likewise has no wheel arch extensions.

Ah this is good news! I shall be ordering a set then! how do you go about doing this, or will details be released at a later date?

Hi,

apologies for the late reply.

The decals are vinyl stick on, believe the company can make various designs if they are to your taste.

Re the rear flaps, then yes they needed a little adjustment, which I've now had chance to look at by elongating the fixing holes. This adjustment obviously will be taken into account for future production.

Hi my name is Rob Perry and are new to the forum, I have a Fabia Monte Carlo and have been following the rallyflap update with great interest.

The price is a bit high but I am intrested in getting some, so when will they be available ?

I also would like thank the Plumber for all the hard work put in on this project.

Regards
