Please note that rear mudguards are not installed on Lada Vesta from the factory - these are new trends in the automotive industry. Mud flaps are needed to protect the body from the effects of dust, dirt, and flying stones from under the wheels when driving. The front part of the car suffers the most from these factors. Rear mudguards on the Lada Vesta model will similarly not be superfluous, perhaps even elongated, especially when driving on Russian roads, where you can really find everything your heart desires. The Lada Vesta car manufacturer, following the example of other factories, decided to install only front mudguards on the car. Attentive West owners began to buy and install the missing rear protective accessory, which was not installed by the factory. Many have found better quality replacements for factory parts. Read the article and find out how to install protection against splashes and dirt without compromising the design or practicality of the machine.
Do Lada Vesta need front mudguards?
Front mud flaps (hereinafter referred to as protection) are extremely necessary to prevent the development of corrosion on metal parts of the body, under the wheel arches.
During systematic contact of metal with snow, ice, and chemical reagents that are sprinkled on roads, the paintwork is damaged and the surface oxidizes. Plastic protection reduces the risk of corrosion by 60 - 70%.
conclusions
Mud flaps must be installed or regularly replaced on any vehicle. This need also affected the Lada Vesta, in which this accessory is made of polyurethane. If possible, it is better to replace them with rubber ones. The presence of such components when equipping a car will extend the service life of the body part and preserve the integrity of the paintwork. At the same time, Lada Vesta owners do not have to worry about wasting their money. They will save significantly more money on car body repairs, since it will be reliably protected from external factors.
Selection of mud flaps for Lada Vesta
The factory equipment of the car includes plastic protection, the dimensions of which are 187 x 154 x 5 mm. The material is practical, but only under conditions of use on a flat road surface, at positive ambient temperatures.
If a wheel gets into a bump and the machine is operated in negative conditions, there is a high probability of damage to the plastic accessory. Therefore, before purchasing protection, evaluate the likely operating environment of the machine.
Products made from rubber are much more practical than their plastic counterparts. Rubber is elastic, adaptable to temperature changes, and not subject to deformation.
The cost of a rubber accessory is 10–15% more expensive than “plastic”, and the service life is 2–3 years longer.
Unlike the factory ones, front mudguards, lengthened by 7 cm, total 194 mm. The increased width of the mudguards prevents dirt from being thrown onto the side members, sills and underbody of the car.

Refinement of Vesta - what needs to be done right away
Mud flaps Novline and Elegant are 2 cm shorter, but they also effectively protect metal structures and paintwork from the negative effects of chemicals on the road, from gravel, sand and dirt.
The extended protection is fastened with five self-tapping screws, one of which is fixed perpendicular to the spar.
The final choice of accessory remains with the owner of the technical device. If necessary, consult with service station specialists regarding the compatibility of the protection with the Lada Vesta model.
How to choose the right one for Vesta
Also, when choosing mud flaps, external parameters are taken into account depending on the body type - sedan, Cross modification or station wagon. This takes into account the installation location - rear or front wheels.
AvtoVAZ uses polyurethane to produce standard linings. The article number of these elements for the front wheels is 99999218111382. And the catalog number of the rear standard parts is 99999218001382. All owners of cars of this model should know that the article numbers for mud flaps for sedans and station wagons remain the same.
The most common products are accessories from manufacturers such as AvtoDriver, NLF, Gard, Novline, etc. The price of the product also includes fasteners that are used to securely fix the mudguards. They are sold in one set. And along with them comes instructions on how to install the product.
Do-it-yourself installation of front mudguards on Lada Vesta
Necessary tools for work
- wheel wrench;
- electric drill;
- Phillips head screwdriver;
- metal brush;
- rags;
- new protection kit.
Step-by-step replacement guide
- We place the car over the inspection hole.
- We squeeze the handbrake and turn off the ignition.
- We jack up the front of the car and remove the wheel.
- We clean the protection perimeter with a metal brush from dirt, snow, and ice deposits.
- We unscrew the four screws in the factory design of the mudguard.
- We wipe the surface of the fender liner from moisture and dirt.
- We attach the new accessory, mark the probable location of the holes, drill them with a drill with a drill bit set to “5”. Lubricate with Lithol.
- We screw on the new protection and install the wheel in its original place.
Mudguard replacement process
Installing mud flaps will not take much time, and every motorist can handle it. Front accessories are attached to a standard location. Installing the rear ones will require a little more time and effort. In any case, the replacement procedure is described in detail in the instructions for the spare part.
Before removing the wheels, you should prepare the following tools:
- balloon for unscrewing wheels;
- crosshead screwdriver;
- brush;
- drill.
First, the wheels are placed on a jack, secured, and then removed. The place where the mudguards were attached is cleaned with a brush, and any remaining dirt is removed from it. In this case, it is important not to catch the surface of the bumper, otherwise the paintwork may be damaged.
At the next stage, the fender liner is fixed to standard holes. Self-tapping screws are used for this. Then 2 more holes are made, the diameter of which should not exceed 5 mm, not far from the standard ones, and treated with lithol. After installing the first fender liner, the second one is mounted using the same method.
If the car already has mudguards installed, the replacement procedure will not take much time, since you will not have to drill new holes. In this case, the main thing is to thoroughly clean the surface and lubricate the holes with a special compound that protects against corrosion.

Installation on Lada Vesta
For Lada Vesta you can find high-quality mudguards costing no more than 1300-1500 rubles.
Installing this element yourself will consist of several steps:
- Remove the rear wheel, clean the surface of the arch from dirt, a stiff brush is usually used for this.
- Using self-tapping screws (it is more convenient to use self-tapping screws with a diameter of 4.2 mm and a length of 16 mm), attach the rear mudguard to the car; usually they are accompanied by a diagram according to which you should proceed.
- Two additional holes with a diameter of 5 mm are made independently. It is better to drill them next to the factory ones at an equal distance, one at the top of the mudguard and one at the bottom, immediately after that treat them with an anti-corrosion agent.
Properly selected and installed rear mudguards on the Lada Vesta will reduce the amount of dirt that flies out from under the wheels onto cars driving behind. By the way, original parts and some other accessories for Lada Vesta are already on sale, which will have a relatively low cost. But you can also use universal versions of products from companies such as Sparco or Elegant, which will have to be modified at the time of attachment to the car.
Reviews
| № | Positive |
| 1 | Andrey (Avtodrom): the standard protection is installed, there are no special comments. True, I often slow down when crossing puddles so that there is less toss on the side members, sills, and wheel arch. |
| 2 | Sergey (Avtotema): there is not enough width to fully prevent hits. Garage mates advise installing Gard, Novline, Elegant. They are 7 cm longer, which means the likelihood of casting while driving is reduced significantly. |
| 3 | Kirill (Autoreview): the original fender liners have been installed for two years, there are no complaints, they are working on their own. |
| 4 | Alexey (Avtoria): I have plastic protection, I have to drive carefully, don’t drive at speed, and don’t get into potholes. |
| 5 | Alexander (Drom): I installed the defense on my own and completed it in half an hour. There is nothing complicated in the process. |
| 6 | Stanislav (Behind the wheel): the protection is practical, it does not deform in the cold. |
| 7 | Vasily Alekseevich (“5th wheel”): has been playing for several seasons in his native defense, and copes with his task perfectly. |
| Negative | |
| 8 | Vitaly (Avtotema): the quality of plastic for making mudguards is primitive; in cold weather from -15° the material bursts and cracks. |
| 9 | Svyatoslav (Otzovik.net): I didn’t like the standard mudguards right away, so I replaced them with new rubber ones. |
| 10 | Vlad (ProAvto): A year and a half has passed since the purchase of the car, first the left, then the right mudguard burst. |
Rubber models are more resistant to wear
Rubber is an elastic material, bends easily, and does not break when passing obstacles such as storming curbs and/or city road irregularities. Rubber products are easier to clean, do not crack in severe frost, and prevent the accumulation of dirt.
Plastic models “thanks to” some personal “cons” are a little less common. The stationary surface of plastic products contributes to the accumulation of road dirt, increasing the frequency of visits to car wash complexes. At speed, plastic mudguards hold their shape and work effectively at high speeds.
The final choice is made by the owner of the car. The error is corrected effortlessly at a low cost, without leading to consequences.
