Right here are the last pics I'll post up.
The brackets after day one.....
I used a piece of paper on the car to mark out the hole centers, I then sketched out on a piece of paper the shape I wanted for the brackets and spray mounted onto the sheet of 2mm Aluminium. (I used double sided tape and doubled up the Aluminium so that I could get 2 brackets exactly the same).
I used a band saw to roughly cut the brackets to the template then I hand filled them to get a smooth flat finish.
The bends I did by hand in a vice.
I finished making the bracket Saturday morning and assembled them (2 brackets for each Mudflap (1 infront and 1 behind the material)
Pics of the Front Right (drivers side) assembled mudflap
Mounted on car
Pics of the Rear Right (drivers side) assembled mudflap

The overall effect......
To be honest, if I didn't have use of my mates workshop I would have been stuffed!!!!!
Overall I am really happy with the look and for a total cost to me of about £35 I am chuffed to bits.
