I got my shinny new front mud flaps for my NB tonight (Thanks +++ Kikuchi) and went to fit them but there is a spare backed that I'm not really sure where it goes??? I can't see where I need to bolt the thing?? Now the mudflabs originally came from a NBc and are going onto a NBa, is this bracket surplus on the NBa and do I just use the splash shield mounts ?

With two laps to go then the action will begin, unless this is the action, which it is.

If i remember correctly, it's supposed to mount to one of the lower holes on the mudguard onto either the underside of the car or the wheel well. I'll go down and have a look to see if there is any evidence of this.

Re: Fitting NB front mudflaps
just checked, there is a little mounting point (part of the wheel guard, and overlaps a bit of the body), i was going to take a photo, but my phone ran out of batteries. I'll see if I can take one later after charging it a bit.

I don't think it'll be TOO important, but if you want you could just get a small drill and drill a hole to mount the bracket.
Photos not very clear and my car isn't very clean.

Ahh, ok. I'll do that then, just thought there was some stock screw it attached to. That's what threw me. Thanks for clearing that up.
