I've been searching for days and I can't seem to find any websites where I can buy mudguards/splashguards for my 2001 GT.. I've found a bunch of sites for this year but they all say "Not for GT" .. I went over a speed bump a week ago and it ripped off my mudguard on one side.. anyone know where I can buy a replacement either OEM or aftermarket? Thanks in advance.

I prefer the strawberry waffle ones myself...

TAKE THEM OFF and wash your car regularly.

take the others off. then you wont waste any money AND your car will look better. removing the mud guards is a proven 75RWHP gain!!

I took mine off and my car looked so much better, it was like a new car. one with less beer cans in the trunk and less mullet.

i think you just have some screws that hold them on. i'm not too sure since my car has never been in a mud sling.

Hmmm... back to the original question.

I'm not sure why the Mudguards would say "Not for GT". The rear bumpers on the V6 and GT (and 99-01 Cobras) are the same where you would mount the mud guards. The only difference is the exhaust cutouts (not on the V6) and the COBRA embossing (instead of MUSTANG) on the 01 Cobra bumper.

My thinking is that they should work.

They actually don't look half bad, and certainly better than the S197 ones...

I used to wonder why folks had them until I put the wider tires on back. I have started to notice more rock hits on the lower part of the rear fender now.

To the thread starter: Where are you from? Not to make fun of you but it might explain more. I could see someone in the north having these. I bought my teenage daughter a (used but mint) pony for her graduation and the first thing she did was take the mudflaps (with "raised" mustang ponys on them) off.

I left them behind when I moved.
