lol thats fine that they are universal, but i dont have any, what am i even looking for? also need the clamps

[ndfspd67]

The rears are universal dont bother. The fronts are whats important

[2002tiiguy]

ok, so i got flaps, i have the front brackets, they are pretty much toast, the rears i dont have, does anyone have a set of rear brackets i can either have, or borrow as a template?

This may have been asked before but are the front & rears the same?

No

I ask because my es had mud flaps when I bought it. The fronts are a little tore up & three states away in my parents garage but my rears are in pretty good shape.

some of us with cnc mills at hand only need some 3d models or a set in hand...

I guess I might be the exception to this, so this is exactly why I would like some decent reasonably priced flaps to keep it that way. Pretty much what I think we all want.

While I like the posts above proposing yet another new solution to this problem, I (like probably most of you..) have heard and hoped for an answer for so long that until I see an actual finished product with a semi-reasonable price, I'm in the pessimistic camp that this will ever happen.

Don't lose hope brother!

^ this. it's a friggin IX. those mudflaps protect the lower rear part of the front fenders. Never seen an IX without severe rust damage in that area.

I'm willing to get these made for everyone. I just need a better lead on manufacturing. If someone wants to chime in with a link or contact I will start looking into pricing. Obviously if the manufacturing costs are going to make repos $500 a set I don't feel they will sell. (Even if that's what OEM sets are going for now) What we need is a manufacture in the US to replicate these for us at a reasonable cost. Well that and buyers to show interest.

No, but they do help protect the skirts and the sides of my fenders, which is really what they are for.

Lol, I feel your pain! I mean... Does having replicas of the oem flaps make our iX's more valuable?

Realistically only if someone was looking at 2 of the exact same cars and one had the mudflaps and the other didnt. I think it's a nice bonus, but that's not why anyone would buy one. I guess it does show somewhat that the person that owned the car was a true enthusiast which is good, but I don't think it adds value

Can we just end this discussion.

Not to be a downer, but this is never going to happen.
