Default Mudflaps?

Having just had the flash painted iam after a little paint protection.
Sum mudgaurds/flaps are the thing iam after.
I did a search and come up with a part number (96555961500), but when i search part suppliers this number goes no where?

Any ideas?
UK based please.

that part no. is for wide body (aka turbo body) so i'm not sure if those would fit a NB car.
you can enter the part number in the search on pelican parts to give you an idea of price.
but a search in PET didn't show that part number. aftermarket?

I know the 3.6t turbo has flaps behind the front wheels which you could look at but i've had to make my own rears as Porsche don't offer a rear option (in Wales I'll need these to keep the mob happy!)

Try Helitape (helicopter tape) which is clear tape with very good protection. Its used on the blades of the helicopter to protect when rotating so should be good enough. We use this on mountain bikes to protect the frame paintwork from rocks and frame rub etc. Worth a look.

I added the flaps from my 3.6 T to my C2 about 5 years ago, required some minor modification to the rockers but simple to install and has saved the rockers from excessive gravel blasting. The rest can easily be covered with clear bra for additional protection. The ones on the C2 get beaten up from Ax events. they are metal reinforced s will bend but can be straightened.

Thanks russ, they look great!

Did you need to drill the plastic or are the holes already there? How effective are they at stopping rear arch dirt in the bad weather?

I might have a go at making a pair in black

Cant comment on how well they work, its sunny today and its the first time ive drivin it since fitting them.
The OE stone gaurds have a shape in them so they fit nice to the plastic sill cover, but makin a pair will do just the same job.
I drilled holes in the front of the sill cover and used speed bolts and clips to attach them.
You can copy mine if you want.
