Mud Flaps

![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I think I would like to keep my new 4.2 nice looking so I'm wondering if anybody could recommend attractive mud flaps for an S-Type? Does anyone make a "sculpted" or fitted mud flap that I could install on my car?
Thanks

Make sure you remove them and clean the area behind them once in a while.
In Boston, I'm sure you have salt on the roads in winter. The salt and other debris trapped behind the flaps can cause rust.
Trying to keep your car looking good with the flaps could get you some earlier than normal rust spots if you aren't diligent in keeping the area clean.
I have no experience with this, just re-posting advice from others on the subject.

Thanks guys, I found front/rear mud flaps on eBay and they are winging their way to me as I type.
I'll let everyone know what they're like after they arrive.

Just installed front and rear sets of mud flaps on my 2000XK8. Bought them on line from a
ford
Just installed a set of mud flaps front and rear on my XK8. Bought them on line from a Ford Jaguar dealer. They fit and look great. I have four miles of gravel, three of which is magnesium chloride so I need protection from rock chips. Don't plan to drive my cat in winter or bad weather. If mud got under them where they attach to the body I think the hand wand at the car wash pointed in the right place would clean it out.
