G-Body Mud Flaps (long shot)

Hi guys, myself and posse of 6 other cars have just booked the Scotland NC 500, albeit the route we are doing is 734 miles, Edinburgh to Edinburgh.
Anyway.
Has anyone ever come across any mudflaps that fit a stock G-Body, or any others that fit well?

Cheers

Re: 2.7 911S oil temp

Thanks Graham, glad it appears to be the norm then in these March temperatures.

Re: 2.7 911S oil temp

If this helps: I have a 73T with a stock 3.2 in it, trombone front cooler, all 2.7 cooling, pipes exposed down the side sill etc, I suspect just like yours.

2.7 911S oil temp

I couldn’t get a reading on the dip stick or gauge with a hot engine, so not knowing what oil or how much was in there, today I changed it.
