I was wandering around a vauxhall spares scrappy the other day just fishing around for bits and pieces, and the guy said to me. "Anything you want in particular, I noticed your driving a 98' Corsa and Ive got some mudflaps you can have for a 5er"
I said, ok why not, so chucked em' in the boot.
Now looking at them, the front ones go on fine with the little metal clips, but how the hell do the rear ones go on? They dont even look the right shape, I can slide the top of the flap onto my bumper, but as I push it up it seems to bend the flap until its all skewered and wont fit right 
Could he have sold me some from a pre 97 car or something, or am I doing it wrong?
Pics of your mudflaps close up would help alot

Right they look the same, and your bumpers the same as mine, but I cant get the fnargin things to go on 
The little recess where the screw hole is on the mudflap wont fit into the little indentation in the bottom of the bumper

The pre and post 97 ones are subtly different but will go on.

I don't but I remember comparing a set, the base of where the screw goes is about 5mm higher on the late ones, but they are soft enough for it not to matter.
You sure they're Corsa and not something else?

Im pretty sure theyre Corsa, I saw him picking about at half a corsa B in his big shed, so Im guessing theyre from that.
