which mudflaps rubber or plastic

[natstj]

I broke teh mudflaps of my car. I have a 02 vauxhall astra. I need mudflaps on the front and am totaly daunted at teh types available. My flaps were heavy duty plastic, moulded maybe. I dont know which would be best to buy and what the difference is between plastic, rubber and moulded.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks natstj

The genuine Vauxhall ones would fit the best, with the bonus that the fitting instructions would be spot on for your car. I personally wasn't too impressed with the moulded type from Vauxhall, because they actually didn't fit too well, preferring the normal flat type mudflaps from Vauxhall. If you kindly ask them for a bit of discount, then they should be no more expensive than the generic "fit anything" type from a general motor accessories store.
