On the A6/S6 the flap *mostly* is mounted against the inner fender lining,
with only a small area up against the paint. On my wife's A6 it's reasonably
tight...on my S6 there's a *bit* more room due to the curvature of the
wheelwell.

I only did the front, as the rear isn't designed to take mudflaps. Other
listers have mounted front flaps on the rear, but I opted not to...

Best thing to do is to get a set from the dealer and hold one up to your
car. If you don't actually mount it, a kindly dealer may take the set back.

Or not.
