Default Mudflaps

So, white Mustang + rear tire kickup = bad. this got me wondering about mudflaps. Before you go off about how "redneck" or whatever that is, Hear me out.

I'm not looking for the actual rubber flaps that just drape down from the rear bumper, but more like the hard plastic or whatever on the z06



I think it would help and not stick out like a sore thumb.

The point here is if anyone knows where I can get something like this that will fit the GT/CS rear bumper, Iwould apperciate any help finding it

thanks

Well you are in luck!!

The GT500 rear molded splash guards are a direct match up to the GT/CS rear wheel wells as they share the same wrap around rear valance up to the wheel openings. And they will stop the majority of the crap from kicking up all the while being quite low profile. You can get them through Fjord parts for quite cheap (less than $20 if I recall).

The molded splash guards for the regular Mustang GT will not match up as nice.

ok so I've scoured the interweb for the GT500 splash guards, and I see that, yes, they fit the GT/CS bumper, but every place I look to buy them does not have them (even Ford), not even eBay.

Am I a complete idiot?

yes I search google and yahoo several times, with every variation I can think of on "mud flaps" and "splash guards". all i found were thread on other forums about them (and yes I read through those)

oh and yes, I'm prepared for the answer [&:]

Exactly!
They are only $12 at your Ford dealership. Go ahead and order them if they don't have them. do NOT buy them off the Internet, unless I am selling them on eBay! That was one of my best $$$ making items. Maybe I should sell some more...
I put them on my GT but if you have a Cal Special there's no reason not to get them on.
