I have euro-spec Golf III mudflaps on mine. If you have the patience for it,
you'll see them pop up on ebay.de with some regularity.

The above are identical to what I put on. They're shorter than either the
aftermarket or the SA T3 flaps, but they're long enough and stiff enough to
keep the spray and rocks down .
The hardest part is waiting for a set to pop up that a) will ship to the US
(Versand Nach: weltweit), and b) accepts a payment form that doesn't cost us
an arm and a leg here (e.g. paypal, rather than bank transfer/uberweisung).
Of course, if you know someone in germany, you could have them grab it and
send it on to you...*
