OK I know its a kind of a random question to ask, but my 'new' toy doesnt have any fitted.... seems mad that a £30k (when new as mine probbaly was) doesnt come with something so basic......

£55 from Audi per pair apparently........ ouch

Question is, do you like or not like them, especialy on the front to stop spray / stones etc......
 
I fitted genuine ones
i like mudflaps as long as there OEM as they fit nice
mudflaps give a car a better stance from the rear and also help stop stone chips up the side
i fit them on all the cars i buy if you can get them OEM .

i been thinking the exact same thing about my cabriolet, i have been trying to picture it with mud flaps but just cant see it, i have never seen a cabriolet with mud flaps........anybody got any pics please????
 
audi upgrades
i fitted them to mine got them from amazon for 25 set of 4 and they are the same as the oem ones or id not have fitted them
 
I like to see them but do the add to the drag factor?
 
i hate mudflaps, they collect so much dirt and moisture behind them i think it actually speeds up corrosion, the b6 is bad enough for rusty wings in my opinion.
 
and the 100bph one like meeeeeeeeeeee lol
 
drag factor... lol whatever next.

they look ghey!! dont bother.
 
and there was me thinking the guys where beeping and flashing me as they liked my car dammmit

ha im ok james live on the coast so its windy and i make sure the wind is always behind the car and that way the mudflaps give me more power lmao :haha:

I was brought up to regard mudflaps as a nice extra and obviously they have a serious role when you see an artic covered in them.The ones on my 2.5TDI quattro are F1 compared to those on the 60s mini which usedto touch the ground

Wow! With that green technology your car must be congestion charge exempt!
 
i got the idea from watching them build a wind farm a few miles from me in the sea :thumbsup:
 
Fitting mine this weekend as long as its not raining, genuine A4 cab front ones...will post before and after picys if I remember
 
mine came with them, but would recomend a few times a year to take them of and clean behind them, also at the same time remove the edge of the arch liner, removed mine to fix the washer pipe and the amount of crap behind there was unreal

think i will give them a miss, they look allright on a dark car, my car is light and dont think they would look any good
 
I'm just hoping to limit stones and mud etc from spraying so far up the side......
