I've always fitted mudflaps to cars in the past, but am not sure whether they are necessary on the Kuga, or indeed whether they would spoil the look of it!
 
Has anyone fitted mudflaps to theirs?

Hi JT Trouble. When I ordered mine back in April I did a deal with the garage for free mudflaps (amongst other things) but they were not available then. If they are puka Kuga ones please let me know asap. I may still wangle them out of them yet. Cheer's.

ps. If dealer backs out, How much did did they cost.?






joe.

The images can be posted in a couple of ways. It´s best to use an image sharing site like Flickr or Photobucket to upload your images from your computer first. Once you have done that use your internet explorer to navigate to the image you want to use on the sharing website and copy the full http://etc. address link. Then you can paste this link into the post reply window and use the forum BBcodes to format the image address so the final link looks something like these:

[IMG]http://www.mywebsite.com/myimage.jpg[/IMG]
This will show the image in the page, make sure it is not too big, say 500 pixels, on the lomg edge.
or
[URL]http://www.mywebsite.com/myimge.jpg[/URL]
This will just give a hotlink, so the pic can be as big as you want.

Make sure that the checkbox under the message pane 'Enable BBcodes to format post' is checked before you click on the Update Post button.

It's a good idea to preview the post first just to see if it works as you expected!

Mudflaps are available here but it would be nice to see how they look fitted.

I had mudflaps thrown in on my Kuga... They are really subtle and do not ruin the look at all. I would say they add that bit of an off-road look to the Kuga. I will post some pics soon.

if the asministrator will allow us to upload pics then i will post some of mine with the mudflaps fitted. They blend in with the overall look and do not spoil it in the slightest

Thanks for sharing the photos amser, they look pretty much OK I think. Do they clip/clamp on the arches or is there some hole drilling involved?
