ive just got my july 06 MCS and it has the jcw sideskirts fitted but ive noticed that the car kicks up a lot of dirt onto the body work does anybody know of a good source for the proper mini mudflaps and also am I going to have any problems with fitting them on the jcw skirts?

Any ideas???

A good source for "proper MINI mudflaps" would be the "proper MINI dealer" I reckon.

haha very good yeah i spoke to my local dealer but they wanted a small fortune for them and to fit them

I would fit them myself but need to find a source that doesnt charge dealer prices

Why not just order them from your dealer and fit them yourself? Generally you'll not get OEM parts cheaper than your dealer can supply them for.

might just have to do that ive got a trade contact who could buy them for me through his garage i.e trade price no VAT etc etc

really want them as i ve only had the car a week and the amount of dirt on the back door particulary is insane and the roads up here arnt all thet dirty so really do need them

The mudflaps do not make a huge difference, there's a few threads on here about them. They tend to make the side areas, where the rear lights are etc. a little better, but the rear still gets filthy.
