Mud flap source?

I removed my front wheel mud flaps today and they're in pretty rough shape:

Anybody know where I can get brand-new exact replacements? They're 19" wide by 14.5" tall, with three holes. I can't find anything remotely close to them online. I wonder if they were just custom-cut?

there's a bunch on EBAY.
I haven't found any with the correct dimensions, may have to trim to fit.

did you check the dealer?


BlueBird has ones that fit the bigger, newer, buses, and they weren't too bad in price, with the BlueBird logo. Bet they'd fit older models, also They didn't fit my bus, though. Mine were discontinued. Not even a close fit.


If I remember, you don't have a Bluebird, but check the dealer anyways?

I bought my front mud flap through Midwest Bus Parts, INC for my 2001 Amtran FE. They measure 15"X20" with three holes pt# 20-M-1520 back in march they were 18.99 each Plus shipping. they could be higher now and shipping is most likely more also. They came through USPS Priority mail. I only needed one but even then with shipping one cost me $32.69. But they are really worth the $18.99. I think that the shipping is too high but with it getting close to Dec 25th what can you do. Hope this gives you an alternative!


good luck

Mose

I went with these: https://www.grainger.com/product/BUY...ud-Flaps-3VUH4, I'll just cut them to match the originals.
