Chinese mud flaps!!!!

[Fellwalker]

I've been given a full refund.

I had tried heating and stretching but it did not work. Maybe try a sharp knife now, though I think i'd need to cut too much. Otherwise they are for the bin.

I don't even know if they would fit a 2013 model, or if the mould shape was just wrong and so it was chucked out and taken by a chinese manufacturer.

Just had a laugh at the post, (re the reverse printing). I can't help but wonder if we will start to see cars on the road with the 'chrome' lettering reading ovloV as the company is owned by the Chinese!

Fitted mine today and have to say quite impressed can’t imagine the genuine ones being much better soaked them in a bowl of warm water to warm them up and make them pliable before fitting (as hot as hot tap is ) and then fitted them to car while wheels were off 3 toed screws out of wheel arch liner then fit one screw to flap and line up other holes then tighten all 3.

Hopefully reduce the muck thrown up by the winter tyres and cut down on spray for those following or passing....

You will find they do help a bit but they will not prevent the dirt on calf issue the bugbear of most high silled vehicles. However quite honestly they would need to be of commercial/agricultural proportions in order to eliminate it completely.
Fitted my ebay jobbies from new and the're still on. I clearly bought the upmarket version with Volvo spelt correctly! Nice easy fit and actually I reckon they enhance the vehicles looks.

Tried some Chinese copy mud flaps off Ebay for £21. They are now on their way back for a refund.

Utter cack.

The rears aren't quite a correct fit and the plastic is so cheap and nastly it splits and tears with slight hand pressure. Didn't bother trying the fronts.

So don't waste your money.

I've now fitted genuine Volvo ones which fit perfectly.

Some will be absolute rubbish and some will come out the exact same factory in China as the Volvo ones - most factories in China who make parts for OEMs do their own hooky runs to sell the parts on the side.
