Bad Ass mudflaps

[squeethebee]

Where can I get the material to cut my own. How much should it cost me? Are there a crap ton of colors? Basically I want what the caged wrb STi had at super meet, but I suck at nasioc, so I need help from people who have better internet skills than me. I'm calling on you NES peeps, help a brother out.
Please and Thank you.

let me know what you find.. i want to make some white flaps for my car and trailor.

[squeethebee]

I really want red, I just can't really justify spending $130 on RA flaps at the moment. There is a few views on this thread, is no one on Nasioc? Someone has to know who had that beautiful pig nose. I want flaps, i want flaps, i want flaps.

Go to Ikea and look at the Dralla flexible cutting boards. $1.99 for 2. Cant beat $4 for mudflaps. I'll post up pics when I get them ready

Ikea is like the new walmart :lol:

[squeethebee]

Yeah, but they are only 2mm thick. Plus where the hell is there an IKEA in MA? The car at the meet had real thick ass flaps.

Off topic, I saw your car roll into the meet, and expected your avatar to get out of the drivers seat.

LOL, I bet you were seriously disappointed...

Back on topic, yeah their thin, but sturdy and flexible. Like I said, cant beat $4 for a set. I'll make a few and templates just in case anybody is interested. Oh, and the Ikea is in Sturbridge/Brocton area, down Rt24,

That would cost almost as much as RA flaps though, and thats if all goes well. 21 bucks per sheet!!! seems like a waste to me, BA though.

if you want the super duty stuff. You should get what subyfreak's got. if you rip those things apart... i'll be questioning what the hell you were doing :lol:

[squeethebee]

Well the sti at the meet had some super heavy duty looking flaps, I'd say a good 1/8 inch thick at least. I just don't know where to buy super thick urethane that doesn't cause 20 bucks a square foot.

Try to find an old boat bumper that they tie to docks. that stuff it tuff as hell. You just have to make sure you get the tube like ones so it's not curved. I'll see if i can dig up a picture.

something like this, but not new. I have no idea where you'd find something like it. It's just an idea.

I talked to that guy at meet on nasioc about his mudflaps before. He told me he bought the material from ebay and its for semi truck mudflaps.

here is his thread on nasioc

I want to do this to my escape now...

I used a mudflap intended for a semi truck. I cut it into 4 equal sized pieces. Works well. They also remain flexible in subzero temps. I got the flap at NAPA. Cutting boards belong in the kitchen.:D
