I got my dealer to install them while they were putting on my scuff plates on the 4 doors.

Just received and installed my Rally Armor mud flaps today.

Price was $124.99, plus $23.60 for shipping (to Canada)... PLUS... $21.00 in tax and handling fees (charged by Canada Customs).

Yep, I just paid $170 for mud flaps.... ouch. I went ahead and got the urethane ones now, because I'm doing an 800km trip pretty soon. Couldn't really wait 'til September for the cheaper ones. Oh well, I've got no paint chips yet... and hopefully won't ever get any!


Install was pretty straight forward. There are instructions included in the package. I would suggest downloading the instructions off their website though. The larger, full-color photos in the PDF are more helpful.

I did my install without taking the rear wheels off. It would definitely be easier to do with them off, but I didn't feel like it today. If you go the same route that I did, make sure you have an offset screwdriver.

Also, I think there is a miscalculation on how many screws are needed for the install. The instructions state that there are 12 short screws and 2 long screws. However, I'm pretty sure you need 2 additional short screws. By the way, there are 16 clips and 16 washers, so a total of 16 screws would make sense. I just went into my toolbox and grabbed a few 1 inch, #12 screws and they did the job.

Too lazy for pictures now, hehe.

If anyone has questions, feel free to ask!

Are the cheapers one's going to be cheaper material? I would rather get longer lasting easy to clean and all that than ones that if i spit up a rock can crack or something.

Definitely, the urethane mud flaps are more durable according to the website. I think it is easier to clean too. The UR mud flaps are very flexible and kind of slippery like so all dirt can easily clean by spraying some water on it. I think the classic flaps are a lot less slippery like so it might be harder to clean.

Copy and pasted from Rally Armor's website
Official link to Rally's Armor FAQ

Classic Mud Flaps
The finish on our classic flaps is an automotive trim style matte black, with a stamped logo in various available colors.

The Classic mud flaps are also very strong, forgiving, and hold up with confidence. As an added bonus, the width of the flaps allows them to perform as curb guards for pricey wheels, and gives the vehicle an aggressive rally stance

Urethane Mud Flaps
The finish on our UR limited series is a glossier finish than our classic (a characteristic of the urethane itself) and can match up with the best finishes on any vehicle.

Speed bumps, steep curbs are easily handled by our flaps. For lowered vehicles, extreme race conditions, and temperatures, our UR limited mud flaps are a top choice for rally projects and competition vehicles. (same material as shown on our sponsored dedicated rally vehicles, just with street ready design)

do you know if you get to pick your own color font? i saw the evo X version ($133) gives you the option of choosing the color but the 2008 lancer series doesnt show that option. any clue?? i emailed Rally Armor but havent got any response. i want them but dont want to spend more than a bill for them.

Yeah, the urethane Rally Armor ones come in all the Lancer colors. The cheaper ones only come with a glossy black logo, though, no choices.

I put silver-logo'd mud flaps on my red Lancer, and I think it looks pretty snazzy. Definitely consider a contrast. Blue, maybe?

I was looking in at the Mitsubishi site yesterday and seems that they now offer mudflaps (and other new accessories) for the Lancer. Problem though is that they dont have a picture of it available. Does somebody here have a picture of what it actually looks like or have seen or already have it (is it any good)? and it does not state if it will fit the GTS model.

Btw... they cost $55 front and another $55 back?
