Thanks Iroc,

That’s not the same brochure as the one I've got which doesn't list them, its issue 1 August 2008. I'll have to get a set when my car arrives.

If anyone has mudflaps fitted any chance you could post a picture please... :)

Andy,

I know what your saying but I'll be doing a bit of miles with the car I need them to try to keep the sides and back cleaner during the bad weather.

I have mud flaps on my Candy White and during the crappy winter weather they worked really well - I might have to ditch them if I decide to lower the car but for me they do the job and I like them, don't think they take anything away from the car - people always comment on what they see in the pictures - if you see in in real life it's hardly distracting or anything, with the Black contrast I have with the White I've forgotten what the car looked like without them.

Some pics for you here

I probably rushed out to buy them originally as when I got my car, I was constantly wanting to keep it clean and bought into the idea of mud flaps - if I genuinely didn't think they worked or looked good I would have returned them straight away or sold them on - but 6 months later I still have them :D

rehmondo,

Thanks for that...the mudflaps look ok to me they'll blend in just fine with the deep black.

I see your from Edinburgh I commute from Fife to Loanhead everyday and have only seen one Scirocco in Edinburgh and that was last year, there's not a lot kicking around our side of the water either.
