Unhappy W205 Splash Guards, (mud flaps)

I have been looking for some front and rear mud flaps for my C-400 AMG Sport 4-Matic. The MB dealer only has mud flaps for the non sport option. I think my car has the code 321 option. These wheels throw up so much mud and water, my white car is dirty 1 block from the car wash
Can anyone help me or direct me to someone who can?

Even the official MB accessories website has them for the luxury package...maybe they haven't made them yet for the sport bumper

No OE mud flaps for the sport models I am afraid. They have never made them for sport versions and will most likely not make them for the W205 either.

I plan on getting the clear acrylic appliqué patches for mine when it arrives to protect the front lower sills/fenders as well as the rear bumper areas. I think they look better than mud flaps and also protect the paint.

They don't look better...they get a yellow tinge in no-time, and are then quite visible (at least as of 2008 technology, if something has changed). Maybe less-so on some colors than others, but on my light-blue metallic B class, they are quite visible. The mudflaps aren't that noticeable, and only really pose an annoyance on some carwash carousels (where they scrape when getting off the rail) or large speedbumps.

Also, it won't protect your car from getting dirty from the splashing.

A rather unfortunate decision to not provide those for the sports models. Has there been any decent aftermarket mudflap for the previous model-maybe they'll be making one for current model too?

I've had clear appliqué on a few cars, they've never gone yellow and its now 2015 not 2008 so perhaps things have moved on a bit in 7 years. I'd rather have these than ugly looking flaps under the car that spoil the look and as for not stopping your car getting dirty, not even mudflaps manage that otherwise I'd reconsider!

Hey,

The Estate version will be made next...

Here is a link to the Fronts/Rears/Sets. They will shortly be available in colour.

The top picture shows the front mudflap, and the rear is underneath.

They are definitely for the AMG Line because Mercedes did not develop them.

Thank you. I'll definitely be interested in a full set for the s205 (estate) as I'd like to protect the paintwork.
