Question Mud flaps ???

Hey, countryside dwellers ! Does your MINI get quickly covered in mud and cow poo when driving in the countryside ??? Mine does, so I was considering installing a set of mud flaps

Do they work ? Or is it a waste of time ... Did you fit your own (easy?), or did you go to BM ?

Cheers guys (n ladies )

I installed the fronts only. It was easy and cheap. Although small, they do a fair job of keeping the door panels cleaner.

There are several threads on this subject. Try a search.

Vive la France!

When I ordered my Mini I got the dealer to install mud flaps on the front and rear. The front mud flaps work well at keeping your doors clean (ish) but you still get quite a bit of spray on your rear window.
