Evo x mudflaps

Can anyone point in me in the direction on where to get the mudflaps. I think they look pretty good and maybe well protect my car in the long run. Thnx.

Do you mean the OEM mudflaps or the RA ones?

The Rally Armor ones can be found here http://www.rallyarmor.com/store/rall...laps-c-60.html

I got the Rally Armor ones and they're great, for half the price of the OEM ones. I didn't realize it would take an hour and a half to install the stupid things though! I had a hell of a time with one screw on the back (both sides), I needed a ratcheting screw driver which I didn't have.

The Evo X is known for kicking up rocks and chipping its own paint.

I have the rally armour ones as well and they are awesome. I have 18x9.5 +22 wheels and they have helped catch a lot of the crap that used to get all over the car.

I picked up some Rally Armor over the weekend and installed them in probably an hour and a half.

I ran into the same problem not having such a small ratcheting screwdriver for the back. I had to do it the hard way with a pair of plyers and a screwdriver bit.

(I should have just done to the store and got the right tool for the job, but I'm stubborn.

I can see my car from my window at work, and they are lookin' pretty good.

I dont like the OEM ones, they look way too flashy for my taste. Having metal "lancer evolution" written on it was not for me. I am not driving a dodge ram tbh. I have Rally armor ones and they are AWESOME. It takes about an hour and a half to install all 4. But for me it only took about 30 minutes as my buddy helped me and he had air tools so it was really easy to remove the tires. For the front ones just turn the wheels towards the outside so you have room to work on but for the back ones you will need to jack up the car and take the wheels out. TBH, just take out the wheels and do it, it will save you frustration lol.

Would mudflaps really help that much to stop rocks from kicking up and scratching the sides?

Just my .02 cents if your gonna get mud flaps on a sports car, why not also get curb feelers, sheepskin set covers, a carpeted dash mat, and a bobble head spelunker doll?

I think mud flaps look bad on our cars but if it really helps protect the paint i might just have to get them.
