Thanks for all your response, I will go and see our rubber manufacturer here who has been in business since 1956. And see what he says.
I just found the R4 mud flaps in stock on this website in Spain, and only 23 Euro a pair ! so they are still available. They have a lot of other R4 parts as well.
The only problem a lot of Spanish firms will not ship to UK
Yes, shipping anything from the EU to the UK is a problem these days. I gave up my Classic car parts EBAY business here in Cyprus after 18 years due to all the problems with the all the Customs paperwork/UK Border force/Vat etc. Although when I ordered my parts from Spain, Cyprus (EU) was not on their list of EU countries to ship on their website ? So I had to send my order via email, so hopefully they will deliver here. I guess I could always order a bulk order of say 10 pairs of these mud flaps, and sell them on this site ? Because EBAY is rubbish these days for selling/buying. Thanks.
Okay Gerald, I have reserved X2 pairs for you, the shipping was 45 Euro from Spain for 10 pairs. Which I guess is not bad.
Update: They only calculated the shipping cost for one pair of mud flaps and a few other bits I bought (3 kilos), so I am now waiting for the shipping cost for 10 pairs ! They weigh 600 grams a pair, so 6 kilos for 10 pairs.
Great ! Thanks for this useful post, I was wondering how they were hung/fitted. And they are really easy brackets to make !
