Sparco Mud flaps

Had not seen anyone mentioning these in any of the discussions regarding mud flaps. They're a good cheap alternative to the others on the market. I won't be putting them on my Evo but I did get a set for my other car. I'll post some pics once I install them. Basically they're huge, you cut them to the desired size and mount them up. $20 for a set of 2...

Here's a link:

As far as looks go I'd stick with black flaps unless your car is actually used for rallying.

The flaps end up looking retarded, they deform and stay that way after ~1 winter season.

I just dont understand some people on this forum these days. If you read the original post he stated that he had never seen anyone mention anything about the sparco mudflaps and they look to be a good cheap alternative to others on the market Then you get people saying how they have the rally armor ones and rally armor ftw! Reminds me a lot of the external dump threads. The second someone asks a question about the QTP dump people respond my saying EPM FTW! Whats the point? What are you trying to accomplish? Personally I have the Rally Armor flaps and love them but you dont see me coming in here posting Rally Armor FTW. He was just trying to be helpful and show an alternative to the more expensive mudflaps. End rant.

RallyArmor flaps are OK. The urethane is extremely stiff.

I've seen the RA flaps wear thru the paint on the front and rear wheel arches so I ended up protecting the contact area with 3M clear paint protection film. It helps to heat them up with a heat gun and form to the contour of the arch.
