rear mud flaps on MCS

[Vernon]

Has any one managed to find and fit rear mud flaps to a cooper S, the rear of the car gets dirty so quickly and suffers with tar spots etc ?

Since there is virtually no rear overhang, rear mudflaps won't help much unless they are almost touching the pavement.

I was driving in the rain today, you should have seen the roostertail shooting out from the back!!!!!!!! Cars won't follow you close when it's raining.

the after market mud flaps for the MINI don't work. you just gotta wash it all the darn time. and, i have no problem with that.

there are a pant load of previous threads on this - conclusion NFG

I have an 'S' on order and emailed my dealer yesterday asking them to fit rear mudflaps. I assumed there were such items available.
I was advised that the flaps for the One and Cooper will not fit as the 'S' rear bumper is a different shape (these are also approx £85 fitted!!!! whooaaa!)Therefore there are no rear mudflaps for the 'S' produced by BMW.

So, there you go....no flaps for a multi thousand pound sports car!

That's a good thing 'cause they won't skid into the back of you then will they. They'd be doing well to keep up anyway !!
