I am looking at what accessories to get for a Zetec I am about to purchase. I was trying to find some pics of a Zetec with mudflaps to get a feel for what it would look like. Is it me or doesnt anyone get mudflaps these days as I have not come across one pic that has them on. Can anyone here please post some pics of a Zetec, or any other model for that matter, with mudlfaps on.
I am also looking at getting the floor mats, scuff plates, sports gear knob and handbrake cover. I was considering getting the alloy pedals but they are just covers. Cheers |

As for the mudflaps, not a big fan of them. Here is the pic that is on the ford website...

This is pretty hard to follow but:
I recon they are obsolete, not only because they look bad, but they were designed and suited when wheel wells weren't that deep (ie more of lower part of the tyre was uncovered). Thats why a lot of trayback utes have flaps. Nowadays wheel wells are pretty deep and with the side skirts you get with the Zetec, not much of the lower tyre is shown. Lowering the car will help this as well. |

I have a LV MKII TDCi with mudflaps.
I live in a county area and they're handy for keeping stones and gravel pitting your paintwork, as well as stopping a lot of mud redistribution. Mick |
