I need side steps and have seen some on eBay. They look great but I wondered if anyone had bought these and if so what's the quality like?

from looking at the picture it has front intergrated mudflaps but there doesnt seem to look like there are rear ones....it will look odd with just the fronts.. ... - .- -.

Stan I think the rear running boards taper at the rear and the mud flaps are behind the rear wheels. |

That's correct. The steps end at the back of the back door, just before the start of the rear wheel arch. The rear flaps are at the other end of the wheel arch Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Mine came without rear mudflaps being fitted, actually not a bad look - but I got some at the right price and fitted them anyway.

I'm less bothered about the mud flaps and more interested in whether anyone's bought these and what they're like...

Well they aren't OEM, and they are at the higher end of the "OEM style" price, but wether that means anything is open to speculation........ Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

I realise that they're not oem but they look good to me but I'm worried if they're cheap metal they'll rust very quickly. |

I had a set of non-OEMs on my last car and underneath they started to rust pretty quickly, but I have no experience of wether OEM items would end of the same way. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

bloody hell chaps i know that the rear flaps go on the back of the wheel arch, what i ws pointing out was that only the front flaps are included in the kit , so the OP would have to purchase rear ones to make the range look complete.. ... - .- -.
