http://www.mymudbusters.com/ Who has them, how long and how have they held up? Also, how far do they stick out? No point if they won't cover my tyres! These look good and not ridiculously expensive, hell if enough people are keen and they're decent quality I might see if I can organise a group buy... Let me know! |

yeah there is a set or 2 on here. Jazzor has them on his new LWB build. Only issue I can see is that they won't work well for those wanting a virtual lift to accomodate 33"+ tyres because they utilize the OEM flare mounts, which leaves the wheel opening at the factory size. |

I have them. They are very well made and fit the factory flare brackets well. They aren't really flexible at all. If you grab them rubbing up against a bank they'll pop off the plastic clips. The clips are cheap and its only takes a few mins to refit them. They stick out about 120mm from the guards. They also come straight out from the arch lip so they don't hang down like the WT flares. If you want your car to look fairly stock they are probably the best flares out there. I'm going to virtual lift my car is the coming months to run bigger tyres so I'll be selling them on and changing to the 4.25" rubber flares from the states or making up a bracket for bunnings flares.

Mine have held up well and just have a couple of scuff marks on them. They are definitely not as fragile as the bushwhacker flares. They seem to be made of similar material and have a similar finish to a safari snorkel. If you get a set make sure you keep the strip from the WT flares that goes between the body and the flare. It can be re-used with these flares and makes them look right. The instructions do not mention this. The replacement clips are about $8.00 for 100 off ebay. |
