Anyone know if the gen1 mudflaps fit the gen2? I filched the mudflaps off our gen1 before it went off to Cazoo but haven't had a chance to look properly yet...

 

[Landi]

Thank you @mokey I have seen a similar ones but wasn't sure if they would fit. Did the holes in the mudflaps fit the ones on the car? The description of the similar mudflaps I have seen said that the holes might not be aligned.



@SparkyEV Gen 2 back bumper has a different design to gen 1, it is not round on each end.

I believe so, for this reason I did not remove the MG mud flaps from my Gen1 to use on our Gen 2.
I think somebody did mention that you can get the rear Gen 1 flaps to fit on the Gen 2 but some fettling is required.
I think the front ones are a straight fit, but can’t be 100% sure.

Hi Landi just got my car on Monday but not fitted yet the garage we’re going to put them on for me next week for free they owe me a few favours , however just offered them up to the car and silly me has ordered the wrong ones these are pre facelift that I’ve purchased, its my mistake just looked again and there is 2 photographs when you order , it clearly shows you pre facelift by small thumb nail photograph & facelift model see photographs , circle around the headlight and bonnet ,will re order and sell on the ones I’ve bought locally , same price same seller.

I can’t really spot any major difference in the shape / styling in both of these photos ??,
Can anybody else see it ?.

I couldn’t either but must be something in it or surely wouldn’t have a choice

Ali express good price good delivery. Fixing screws rust easily so I purchased black stainless Steel. Solved the problem problem.

Yes that’s where I got mine from , good tip on the screws will do the same , did all the holes line up perfectly with the car ? What length were the screws , read on here somewhere they are a bit short ? Cheers.

Bought an offset screw driver attachment fromm toolstation so I didn't have to remove rear wheels to fit, screws already in position holding trim line up but need two holes for fronts. I used a bradawl screws were 17mm, couldn't get button head so I used black stainless surface screw cup Washers.

All fitted in 15 min.

When putting holes onto the bodywork should I be using some sort of rust inhibitor afterwards?

I’m not sure if it actually goes in to body work itself ?

 

[Alb]

When I did this on my MG5, any additional hole required was in plastic only so I'd imagine this was the same.

I would consider using some high quality stainless steel screws to be honest.
The screws that came in the original OEM kit from MG where only mild steel and began to rust within a few short weeks

As MG no longer list mud flaps. Has anyone fitted the original MG mud flaps to the new face lift model
