Hello all.

Am looking at getting some rear mud flaps.

I've seen some on eBay for £9.99 from Rally Retro Supplies (link here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AUSTIN-ALLEGRO-MUD-FLAPS-MUDFLAPS-AUSTIN-British-Leyland-BMC-/190798223988) Just wondered if anyone had come across them, and what the quality is like. I'll need to get hold of some clips as I wouldn't want to screw them to the bodywork.

Hi Phil,

I cannot comment on these items as such, but they look OK. I would not employ clips to hold them in place, but use stainless steel screws and washers. Yes I know it would mean drilling the wheel arch flange, but if the area is treated it should not cause an issue. I have never found clips to work well and they will cut or wear through the paint anyway.
