Default Looking for mud flaps

Has anybody installed mudflaps on a 2011 yet? Where did you get them? How much did they cost? Were they easy to install?
Thanks

I installed Rally Armor mudflaps on my B7. They awesome but i bought the universal ones since they dont have an audi template and had to drill the holes. It was a pain in the *** at first since i had to line everything up and there is no designated area for mudflaps on my car. Once they are on they work wonders. One tip would be to first figure out how far you want them to hang down from your car and mock it up before you lift it and take the wheel of.... if that needs to be done. enjoy. http://www.rallyarmor.com/

I sourced a set of OEM from ebay. They were mailed from Poland, and arrived in Australia in about 10 days. Haven't got the car yet (but found out today that it is in the country), so I haven't installed them yet. But, the instructions are clear enough. Fitting looks to be a mix of currently drilled holes, a couple of clips, and two small holes (per flap) that you have to drill.

The would have to be the most substantial mudflaps I've ever seen. Almost worth what Audi ask for them.

My car has just been delivered, and a small hiccup with the mud flaps has shown up. I ordered the 19" GMBH offroad wheels, and what I didn't notice was that those wheels included a small wheel arch extension. This extension is fitted with all of the 20 inch wheels, but only the one 19 inch design. So, I'll need to at least partially remove the extensions. I don't think it's a big job...I guess we'll see.

The arch extension proved not to be an issue. Removed the rear ones entirely, and carefully trimmed the front so that they fit flush against the mud flaps.
