mud flaps and install

I have purchased urethane mudflaps from Susquahannah Motorsports in PA. Does anybody have a template or suggestion for fastening to my EVO-

Sorry I don't have any suggestions, but I hope you will post some pics & info once you get them installed because I could really use a set myself.

The flaps are bigger, and utilized custom bushings


Mauromotorsports has a thread in the Vendor for sale section

FYI you dont have to be "going crazy" to protect your cars finish.

Those flaps have good coverage, and provide a sporty rally look to boot.

Thats like saying why buy an EVO when a civic can get you from point A to point B

yeh, and your saying you need those flaps because you rally, hence my point.

I don't get chips and I goto smooth pavement to see what my car can do.

I guess what I'm saying is, how is that different from a sticker on the side that says "type r"? I'm sure it's bit more functional, but I still don't see the difference. It just fu cks up the lines on the evo.

____ <--- stupid looking eye roll face here.

Guys, FYI I just spent an entire afternoon last Saturday trying to create a flap and mounting system like the Body Armour. Believe me I am not sure what your time is worth but even at $10.00 an hour I wouldn't have broken even! Their pricing is very fair and the finish work is much better! My .02 cents worth-

I dunno about yours, but the sides of my car get absolutely filthy from tire spray.

For all of you who don't like the "look" of the flaps that's fine! It is obviously a "rally" look. What the car was made for remember!!!! If your drive on the freeway all day you may not need them but if you live in ANY climate that has sand, mud, gravel, rain etc.... you should get down low and take a look at your lower rocker panels behind each wheel and I think you will be surprised at what you see-
