Made these for the rear lower wheel arches, after I localled the paint and did,nt want any more gravel rash.., simply some old flexible plastic, cut to shape with a cardboard template.
Went to my local Ford dealer bought 6 clips ( Ford Focus mudflap clips) even the part no was good ( F 101 " 928" 7 )
Then I fabbed some right angle brackets to locate the lower section , best thing is, there were no holes drilled in the car, so it can be returned to normal without problem.
Hope you like, I,m happy the way they turned out.

Hi they look great pity the rears will not fit a s4 .When looking at 928 from Japan quite a few had nice mouldings on front and rear .

.., thank,s . I thought they might fit an S4 even easier as you have a thicker lower plastic bumper section whereas mine only has a half inch return flange ?

Mudflats were a factory option but I've only ever seen them on one car - Derek Cashmore's lovely black 1991 S4. I don't know if any are available in Germany. They have rubber embossed "928" running across width

Ken you never fail to amaze - brilliant job looks good well done.

.., thank you Andrew

.., yes I know the one,s you mean I had some, they would look more at home on a truck I thought, plus 9inch rears stick out past the flap by one and a half inches. ( I measured them ) They,re ok if you have the standard wheels and no rear wide track fitted , but they did look huge when I tried them on the car irrispective of rear wheel width.
The idea behind my design was to have some lower arch protection and still have the fat rear tyres showing, as I don,t think the 928 suits "real mudflaps"

Ken, they look great!

Is your garage carpeted?

..., actually it is, plus heated...., and that,s a dehumidifier you can see at the front.., the carpet idea was something an old chaufer told me about years ago, any dampness in the air is attracted to the carpet thus reducing the dampness in air quality, plus the dehumidifier does,nt work overtime. Before I layed the carpet the car would occasionaly "sweat" during the cold winter months, now I never ever get that
