which mudflaps rubber or plastic

I broke teh mudflaps of my car. I have a 02 vauxhall astra. I need
mudflaps on the front and am totaly daunted at teh types available.
My flaps were heavy duty plastic, moulded maybe. I dont know which
would be best to buy and what the difference is between plastic, rubber
and moulded.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks natstj

 

The genuine Vauxhall ones would fit the best, with the bonus that
the fitting instructions would be spot on for your car. I
personally wasn't too impressed with the moulded type from
Vauxhall, because they actually didn't fit too well, preferring
the normal flat type mudflaps from Vauxhall. If you kindly ask
them for a bit of discount, then they should be no more expensive
than the generic "fit anything" type from a general motor
accessories store.
