They are not pre-drilled. The instructions tell you to mark them first so you can drill them in the proper location.

Ikea mudflaps are used in us rally from time to time and seem to do quite well. I've been using sparcos from car domain but they do tear out. rivots work well, but you can also get them to hold in just reusing the fender liner clips. its just a bit too small of an area and seems to tear through at times though..

Ikea's website has them listed... http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90131935
Has somebody gone to Ikea in Sac and tried to search them out??


*Edit* My slow web browsing skills finally led me to the box that said "out of stock"... Lame! I'm sure someone has to have some back-stock of these laying in thier garage?

Sure thing

I will be leaving tomorrow afternoon and will have limited computer access while there so hit your buddies up if you know of anyone else in the Reno/Tahoe area.

Does $5 a pair sound good?? that gives me roughly a dollar each for my efforts... I don't want to be stingy though.

So it would be $10 for all 4? I am most likely too late but I will also take a set of black ones.

You guys are lucky and the weather was shitty out here for newyears so I couldn't make it to Phili.
I am going to try to make it a point to get to an Ikea before I leave so I'll grab all the black ones that they have... plus a few white, red and grey if they have them
You guys are first in line.

I am zero priority and last on the list, so don't feel bad if there are not enough.

I'd like to do a mudflap creation party. I'd be willing to loan out my garage area but I dont have any kind of saw other than a handheld electric router.

What else would we need? Should I go to R&E Fasteners to get some fasteners?

Don't buy anything yet... I am flying back on fri morning and I am going to try to get to the Ikea by the airport... Don't take my word for it but I am gonna try my hardest to buy up all the cutting boards that they have, or atleast as many that will fit in to my carry-on.

Sorry guys... I'm a bum and couldn't find a way to get to an Ikea. I'm sure there has to be a way to order them off-line?

So I picked up a set of Rally Armor UR mudflaps...wow, they are nice...Glad the homemade plan didn't work out, these are going to look really good and work really well. The hardware and spaces included give me faith in these.
