Default mud flaps, anyone?

where I live, more road salt ends up on the road then it snows. Seriously, within 2 days of driving my car is completely coated behind the wheel wells. I figure mud flaps would fix this problem (and even if they wouldnt, they look good in my opinion).

Has anyone bought and installed certain mud flaps they particularily enjoy?

you just want OEM ones, unfortunately for you they were on sale at ecstuning.com for 6 bucks about 2 weeks ago =/.

they still have them on the website but not nearly for such a good price, however check your local imports junkyard you can prolly find a few in good shape. and BTW they make front ones too which id recommend for a quattro.

I was hoping to find both front and back, like you said.

are there any good aftermarket flaps?

I believe a company called RallyArmor makes a set for the B5, though I imagine they aren't cheap.

for the price, not bad. but if u can go to a junk yard the OEM ones looks almost the same but instead of square they round off looking "sportier" and the rear ones have the audi logo on them(they're all black with black audi rings)
