    Yes Marc 4mm pvc and they go all the way to Fords baby flap, that way you do not get folk shouting out “mind the gap” if you were to have the Mt or whatever the other ones are. innit.



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    @brembo, I have to say bda has probably the best solution to Flaps, I yield to his better fitting, his do go up to the mini Ford Flaps, and arguably better fitting fronts too ??

    Thats 2 x warranty claims (well 3 if you include the Head Gasket) dealt with promptly and couldn’t ask for a better outcome!! Very happy!! ??.

    Hello

     

    Just realised my new RS is also missing the little flap/splash guard on the N/S Rear . Just contacted Ford’s.

    Brembo did you have to replaced the whole  arch liner?



    Had a Frozen White RS

    Then a

    Red Edition RS  

    Went away to sample others before realising where my heart lies

    Now have a

    Nitrous Blue Edition RS 💙
