^^^^
Your wheel centre caps look much better bearing the brand of the four rings. :happy2:

Personally, I'm glad that VAG give us the option by not including mudflaps as standard. They may be very practical and useful but they don't look cool on a performance car imo.

....

Yes but that's a (mostly) off-road rally car!

As it happens I don't much like those particular Fords anyway but that's not relevant except that it wouldn't get pinned on my cool wall.

Well this one is mostly a road car..............



Not only will these help keep your car cleaner but they will also save your windscreen should the car flick up a stone whilst you were following!  :happy2:

Flaps FTW!  :laugh:

....That example looks really beefy and the flaps suit the car from what little I can see.

I know that flaps make a great deal of sense (and said so in my earlier post IIRC) but, personally I think they look out of place on a tarmac driven performance car. But, however protective etc, I detest the look of car bras too - Only my opinion.
