Anyone know of a brand/style? I like the WRX and STIs running around with mud flaps, especially the hatchbacks. Really sets the whole car off, IMO.

If I'm honest, I don't know what practical application these have except may be to stop umm, mud from kicking back to your front and quarter panels?

Any help would be appreciated.

mud flaps are for scoobies and trucks..... haha j/k I think they might look good on a forte5. Not sure about a koup. Don't think I would be getting any.

I have the stock ones on my '14 Forte 5 SX, and debating getting the Universal Rally Armours mudflaps and either using by themselves or with stock ones behind.

I need a bit more coverage as 25% my daily drive is gravel/back roads. Still hear a bit of rocks hitting side of car with stocks but no damage yet.

here is a simple of a how to on a web link on making rally mud flaps.. I did a similar thing on my Evo 10..

Rally style polyurethane mud flaps for $20

if this is just a comedic thing than cool.. I get it .. its a cool look.. but if you just want to keep your fenders clean the kia factory mud flaps do a good job for all but the most nasty stuff like dirty snow or gravel.. happy modding

$100 for two? That seems expensive for what you get. I saw the instructibles in my searching.

Does the Forte have prevailed holes? I'm assuming they do since the little ones are on there, right? I Just like the look, to be honest. I mean people do CAI and BOV or whatever more for the sound and the marginal increase in performance is an afterthought. I always see people say "oh that sounds cool psshhhh"... and I can definitely feel the horsepower in the butt dyno... lol.

What I don't like which others may or may not like are the window visors. I see smokers with them in the rain with it cracked open so they can have their butt and still stay relatively dry. Not for me.

OK, I"m going off a tangent, but I'm more show than go at this point in time. I'm the kind of guy who would buy a Hellcat to cruise around rather then utilize the full 707HP but that wouldn't hurt
