Hi folks, anybody fitted any non genuine mudflaps to thier Pumas and if so any pics? I have noticed Ford do Rears but not Fronts but have seen some universal type ones on eBay.

Cheers
Mark

Ford stopped doing the fronts a little while back now which seems stupid as they do most of the work in keeping the car sides clean, you could get away without rears.

They don't wear out only the car they were attached to so second hand is the place to look for mud flaps

Yeah it does seem odd. I assume they did the same batch of fronts and Rears but fronts need replacing more often then Rears.

Ha ha yes, maybe they should have made a moulded plastic Puma.

Soak in bucket of water water prior to fitting makes then much more pliable.
