It seems you get a better class of vehicle in the B&Q car park these days

Looked out for you, but didn't see you. Nor for that matter, did I see any small matt white wall tiles, which was what I was after in the first place

Hi, do I see painted mudflaps? Could you post a picture from those on the car? I am thinking to sprayaint mine, curious how it looks. Thanks.

They are indeed painted, and look very nice too

. Not my car, so I don't have any close up photos I'm afraid

Hey hey, fame at last

Yes I popped into B & Q Farnborough for my mum to get her some lights today. Shame I missed you Cliff, were you in your Lagoon too?

If I’d have known it was going to be spotted I’d have given it a wash

Sadly not, I was in my wifes Hyundai

.

I spotted your car from some distance, it really stood out from the crowd (in a good way!)

That is one stunning looking vehicle that would grace any car park or backdrop. In a way I wish mine was the same or a darker colour, as the contrast with the chrome trim makes it really stand out.

Painted from new 2004 still look good today.

Looking very nice, giving it a bit more body to the car. Thanks for posting.

Here you go Emiel, some images of them on the car

I personally think they integrate into the bodywork much better when they are colour coded to the paintwork. Painted mudflaps were offered as an extra cost option back in the day.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your extra images and the info, I think it looks very nice and better than non painted ones. I will paint mine on the Moonstone, probably this summer. First have to deal with a coolant leakage on the Dutchess, think it is the WP....more priority than painting although I prefer fixing up esthetically than mechanically (beginner).

Have a great week.
