I have a facelift 2011 C220 CDI BE but it doesn't come with mud flaps. My guess is that this is for aerodynamic reasons to improve the efficiency. It does however mean that the sides behind the wheel is constantly covered in mud this time of year.
Is anything available? I've looked on the Merc website for accessories but can't see anything there. I've also looked at aftermarket but only seen universal flaps that require drilling which I don't really want to do.
Is anything available or am I just going to have to wash it more regularly?

I would think that genuine MB ones would be available for the C-class.

I sourced a set for my E-coupé from one of the MB dealers that advertise on a certain well-known online website. Even if not showing on that website, if you e-mailed one of those suppliers they could advise further. From memory MB Perth, Edinburgh and possibly Newcastle advertise on there, and no doubt others as well.

Being genuine MB ones they fitted easily, without any drilling etc. I'm not sure if they do them for the AMG / sport bodykits, though. Oh, and mine were a good price as they were clearing stock at the time, but that won't help you smile
