Default C4 control arm / wheelhouse shields?

Looking for a new pair of these rubber control-arm shields/flaps. Can't find them from the usual vendors. Anyone know where I can get a new pair? Mine are starting to tear. Also want the 8 bolts that hold them in place - mine are rusted.

Kinda helps. Although those are only for 84-87 C4s. Need a set for late C4. 96.

Were these flaps OE from the factory for 1995??? I have a buddy who's dad is the original owner of a 95 and there's none on his car and he said he never removed them.

I'm interested in this as well. They're not on my 95, but sure look like they may have been at one time.

My 90 and 91 are both like your photo, best I can tell. Very exposed, actually. However, they seem adequate as I've been in some really heavy rains with no problems.
