Interested in inexpensive mud flaps?

I am going to build a set for my 04 WRX and am wondering if anyone would be interested in buying a set?

I am estimating the cost will be around $50 a set if I buy everything in bulk and make 3 or 4 sets.

I am trying to find blue material, but most likely the flaps will be black, and stainless steal brackets.

I'd be down for a set Matt.

It'd be great if blue material was available. What type of flap material are you lookin' to use? I'd only be concerned about the material curling up at the corners after a few weeks.

Hey J, I will save a set for your rally car.

I have to go by TAP plastics to look at the materials they have.
I know they have HDPE in blue which might work, but not sure how flexible it is.

is there any benefit to make own mudflaps comparing to [for example] rally aromor ones besides the cost?

I ended up getting RallyArmor flaps and am still researching hardware to use.

i made my own from pepboys universals. easy and look nice. probably easier/cheaper to get the rally armour hardware kit than source your own though.
