dan 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Just sitting in traffic today admiring a new 3 series BMW and I noticed that the wheel arches are well shaped around the wheels on the 3 series. i.e. nice small and even gap all round. I also noticed that this look was helped by the moulded mud flaps they have. Does anyone know if there are OEM moulded flaps available for the corrado? I was told, the rear mud flaps off a Mk3 golf would probably fit. Does anyone have any pics of mud flaps on a c. Or do you think they'd look stupid?

Banana Man 0 Posted February 18, 2003 I've just been through the old faithful etka cd rom and they're not listed they must be on the additions catalogue as they were an added option I'll get down to my local VAG dealer thats round the corner from me and find out the part number for them and price as I could do with some as well as long as they dont look naff of course!!!

Banana Man 0 Posted February 21, 2003 Right to all of you who want mud flaps on your C here is the part number from the stealers it is 821-VAG-857 they come in pairs and are the same front and back so you need to order 2 sets to do front and backand they're £18.99 per set. MMMMM suits you sir!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted February 21, 2003 Are they Corrado branded, or are they just plain? Just interested to know :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banana Man 0 Posted February 22, 2003 I dont know if they are are corrado branded or if they come with just the VW logo on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted March 21, 2003 Anyone got these yet? Quite tempted- used to have some on the VTI, and it's amazing what a difference it makes- the car stayed soooo much cleaner! These Corrado ones look a bit big though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60Jet 1 Posted May 4, 2003 Okay I've sorted the mud flaps once and for all, well 90% anyway The Flaps are for various Models of Vw's and as BANANA MAN, says their are part number is 821-VAG-857 Now this is were the fun starts The Flaps have a space on them for the "corrado" badge to go, or other VW model. Now in the Case of the Corrado these badges were part number 821-VAG-844, but they are no longer made or available as they were made by quatium the same as the oil and are UK parts/Accessories only. As are ALL xxx-VAG-xxx parts. For the Corrado you also need a special fitting kit that requires a longer screw than the once that come with the flaps. Part Number 821-VAG-845 so to recap 821-VAG-857 Flaps in sets of two (1 Pair) 821-VAG-845 Fitting Kit For The Corrado 1 Kit per pair required (i think) 821-VAG-844 Corrado badge for flaps (discontinued) I have managed to get 2 set of flaps from the Local Dealers hear in the UK while on my visit, I've ordered the Fitting Kits and I found one set of the Flap badges this morning at the VW show at Stamford Hall. The ones with the VW logo are apparently a better shape and are for the Passat, they are from the 97 range for one set and another year for the other set. Someone else will need to fill in that 10% of info. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Jet 1 Posted May 6, 2003 The Logos for a the Flaps are no longer stocked by any UK dealers guys range round the ones i was given as having them in stock. one there a few sets away last years what a muppet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormseeker 0 Posted May 6, 2003 Does anyone have any pics of mud flaps on a c. If you've got issue 26 of "The Sprinter" have a look on the back cover! Nice big piccy of mystic blue Storm (Chris Gaskell's to be precise!) with mudflaps with VW logos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Jet 1 Posted May 6, 2003 The VW logos are passat mud flaps and Chris C is mine BTW saw it at the weekend. I'll have some pics of mine with the flaps on by the weekend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 6, 2003 The full script on neat fitting mudflaps (votex not Quantum) as covered off by Chris Gaskell was in the May 99 Sprinter for those VWCCGB members. A straightforward mod (must be I did it !) using combination of Passat 97 on flaps for the front and Passat 94 onwards rears (part nos in The Sprinter) . Have had them on my 16v for while - very satisfactory and whole lot less intrusive than solid wedge types. Jim do you have a pic of my 16v from the AGM showing these flaps as I have no digicam ?

Guest Posted May 6, 2003 Stormseeker , yes that is Chris Gaskell's Storm on the back page of Sprinter 26 but it sure aint 'Mystic' unless he's had it resprayed from 'Classic Green' which I somehow doubt . One of , if not the , smartest C's I ever seen - only comes out in good weather from May onwards . Flaps on it are same as mine as 'pioneered' by CG per May 99 Sprinter under article heading "Here's mud in your eye" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or someone's been photoshopping the colours - there does look to be a bit too much red - tail lights have an almost pinkish quality. (oooooooh - get me!) . That's the mystic-bluest looking classic-green I've ever seen :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DEL VR6 0 Posted November 21, 2003 has anyone here bought and fitted a set of the Mud Flaps that seem to be on sale on Ebay almost every week? They are the ones that say Corrado on them. Would be interested to know if they are any good in terms of quality, and fit? cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philmo 0 Posted October 31, 2007 Hi Guys I can't beleive there is such a thread - I've just binned 2 full sets of C flaps! [influence of my uber-cool offspring - storm-nut] My daily runner Bora V6-4M has superb moulded flaps which work & look well - much superior to the bolt on after variety! Regards Philmo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
