Installed my mud flaps this weekend. This writeup helped immensely, though I can't say the same for the official instructions. I didn't notice drilling into any metal, though, and on one of the lower holes on the rear ones there wasn't anything to drill into except the cloth fender liner. Maybe it's a small difference between the MY2011 and 2012 cars? Weird, but I put the screw in anyway just to keep it from having an empty hole. All told, it took me < 2 hrs.

 

Just got my frt/rear flaps from Prestige off of ebay. Instructions only came packaged with one pair of the mud flaps and it was in German. Thanks to the original poster for the photos and the poster that provided the scanned instructions. Will attempt installation tomorrow on my '12 countryman.

 

Installed front and rear mud flaps today.

Found a link on line that was also very helpful...http://www.justanswer.com/bmw/5ozds-...mud-flaps.html

 

Waking up this dead thread because I have a question about parts...

I bought a set of mudflaps used from a local guy, but did not come with any of the hardware.

I was going to just reuse the same metal screws, but I'm having a lil trouble finding the right part number for the plastic rivets.

Can someone help point me in the right direction for the plastic parts?

Thanks!
