No mate... Vauxhall mudflaps will not fit the VXR Side Skirts or VXR Rear Lower Valance... **** init !!

I'm still trying to figure what I am going to do with mine... probably just leave it !!

Matt and someone else have used old Astra 'Flappy' mudflaps with the vauxhall logo on, but I personally dont like them. However they will do a good job keeping the stone chips away...

you would think that it would be possible to buy a set of mudflaps that fit for the vxr! although they probably wouldnt sell in huge numbers,

Yes you would !!!, but nope !!

EDIT: Especially knowing the huge high speed capabilities of the VXR and how prone it must be to stone chips !!

EDIT2: ......and they would probably sell in huge numbers due to the VXR Styling Pack being fitted to nearly all the new SRi's that are rolling off the production line !!

I`d far rather have stone chips than mudflaps !! Not a fan of them, no mud on the roads now so I think they should have been retired along with scarfs and goggles ....
