I recently bought a pair of mud flaps from a friend and the bottom of the mud flaps are nor flush with the bottom of the bumper can someone please tell me why this is???


and why am i a nuw user ?? ive been on honda tech for 2 years

 

i recently read a thread and the OP never mentioned what car he owns and never added any pictures of the part in question with poor fitment.

can anyone tell me why this person is so stupid?

if it doesnt fit properly there are only a few possibilities,

1. the flap is aftermarket
2. the flap is for a different model vehicle
3. the rear bumper is aftermarket
4. your friend lied to you

 

9o y3ea 8i 2was 8in a 4r7ush and my c9om0p7ut3e4r 8is f7uk3ed 7u0p as 7u can s3e3e
but i own a 1989 honda civic si hb

 

do the flaps make room for the lip or what?

 

pics? i guessing from what your're saying, your mud flaps are like this \ instead of this |. right? if it is, then you probably have front mud flaps.

 

Are the mud guards too long? If you use 90-91 mudguards on a88-89 bumper you will have a gap at the bottom.

 

yeah thats exactly whats wrong on mine a friend of mine said that it was just a gap for the lip to be put on is that right or do i need to get some other ones??

 

you have to be the stupidest person alive.

no one gives a crap what you do with these flaps, run them with a gap, who cares man.
if you want flaps that fit get the correct flaps, end of discussion.

what a waste of a thread, use your brain.

 

ok sorry i caught u on your rag sir i will be shure to note that nothing you say will ever help me in any way so if you can just stfu and let the people that are really trying to help say what they think will help that will be greatly appreciated, but is this gap for the lip or just wrong flaps?
thank you

p.s midol should really help you in this time of you month jackass

 

actually turbo dan has helped me before on my previous screen name and is a pretty knowledgeable person if i do say so myself.

anyways what year, type, of car did your friend have? dont think that they ever left a "gap" for a lip to be put on

 

if the flaps dont fit flush then they are not the right ones.

the rears should attach with around 4 screws if im correct. 3 that screw to the bumper or maybe 2 and 1 that screws into the inner wheel well of the car. if its not made for the car the holes wont line up. give a parts number.

 

they should also be shaped like your rear bumper.

 

what's the part number on the flaps? its on em you just have to look and/or clean em good to see the number.

i usually use some armorall to see the numbers easier.

 

dude, what kind of car did your friend have. what did the flaps come off of. and m@yb3 y0u shOuLd St0p t@lking L!K3 THiS. so you dont get raged on.

 

rallypoint already gave you your answer several posts ago

why are you beating a dead horse, stop being lazy and go out and buy the correct mudflaps.
