Yes, the genuine Seat FR rear mudflap ((575075101A) is a very close fit, you decide if its good enough from the pics below:

Interestingly, my original post has been viewed 466 times, but only one reply has been posted (thanks, Cosmic Blue). Whilst several of those views are probably just people being curious, I'm sure some must be from people also wanting to fit mudflaps that fit a recent Cupra Ateca.
Has no one else successfully found a solution?
 
I looked at options for several months, imported rubbish items that allegedly fitted (mine was a 2023 vehicle), but didn't and then noted that a friend's FR Ateca's rear bumper looked tantalisingly similar, took the plunge and ordered a set. With time and patience they could have been made to fit better but I was awaiting a knee op at the time and couldn't spent lots of time kneeling on the garage floor making them fit perfectly. Your original post will attracted lots of views because the Cupra Ateca throws lots of road crud up onto the rear of the vehicle and as you have noted there is no official part for the job - the part number needed is in my post - not cheap though.

If you go down the mudflap road then the mud deflectors for the rear wheel arches that stop crud been thrown up onto the rear faces of back doors is another worthwhile (and inexpensive) mod:

Thanks for the further advice, much appreciated. I think I shall either go for the FR version as you did, or maybe cut some from plain rubber sheet to make flaps that use the wheel arch liner mounting screws. Proper ones would look better, but the car definitely needs one or the other.
As for the deflectors to protect the back doors, I am now on my third order for them since August. The first two orders never arrived and Amazon eventually refunded me. I suppose they are all manufactured by the same firm in China and sold by different sellers through the Amazon platform. Currently, my third order is now 2 weeks overdue, and Amazon is "reviewing" the order before refunding me again.
Once again, thanks for the advice. John H
 
You are most welcome John H, frustrating with the Amazon order. I had the knee op back in early November, having swapped the Ateca for VZ2 Terramar a few days before. Cupra seem happy to do mudflaps for both ends of the new wagon - equally effective at keeping the rear and sides cleaner. Also the Terramar rear wheel arches have the same 'missing' bit of steel-work as the Ateca does - but the mud deflectors are built into the doors instead, progress. John W.
