Any one got mud flaps on their box?

Show me some pix please!!

 

Moved to DC

 

I've been actually thinking about fabricating some mudguards for my xA. I do a lot of highway driving and it's usually raining. I rarely wash my car (don't have time!), so I can gauge where the dirt "hot spots" are...

 

I got some diamond tread that I plan to use and just wanted to see what shape and size to make them.

 

I'm thinking about putting a set on my box also. I'll fabricate something and post pics once it's done.

 

I am kinda surprised, I would have thought this would have been done more than it appears.

Probably not thought about much anymore as most new autos have them already.

Please post or pm pix when you get done. I will do the same.

 

Just Say No to mud flaps. They really don't need them cause the tire has no direct line to the exterior sheetmetal. If the tires kick anything up it stays in the wheelwell. Plus it will not look good and youd have to drill holes. Shall I go on????

 

Please do...englighten me please.

 

 

You can't stop me!!!! (Evil laugh echos into stillness)

 

This just sounds soooo wrong to me....

 

Please please, share your thoughts.

 

I am interested in seeing pics when you got 'em!

 

most of our cars are so low they would only be coming down a few inches in the back... no room for the naked lady or yosemite sam. Probably for the best then...

 

Don't let me stop you. It's not my car!!! If you want to be a laughingstock be my guest!

 

I'm interested too, i don't have time to clean my car every week and it's the sides that seem to get real dirty. i've searched the information super highway ,but nowt comes up.

 

Here are some but will require some drilling to mount http://mudflapsusa.safeshopper.com/71/cat71.htm?939
For even more protection they make this stuff for around the whole wheelwell that only sticks out 2 1/4" inches to keep the side of your car clean.

your local autoparts store will usually carry some kind of universal rubber mudflap (autozone, under $10 a pair)

in fact, i did stainless steel mudflaps, measured to 1/4" from the ground when i fully drop my xB -- needless to say; i crumpled them in less than two weeks.

RUBBER next time

 

someone with the capability please make a mud flap that'll fit and look good.

 

What type of MUD issues do you have that would warrant mudflaps? (yuck!) Are you trying to postpone your wash intervals? Why mess up perfect bodylines with something as ugly as mudflaps??? I don't see the real need
