John Vine Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Well, I'm not laughing as I have front mudflaps on mine. When you live in the sticks, surrounded by horses, it's a better option than getting covered in horse ordure every time you venture out.

I live in the sticks and its impossible to drive more than half a mile without stuff stuck to the wheel arches ! ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivaan Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I cut out a couple from an old pair of wellies, and stuck them onto the wings with superglue! Held on for a few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stationary M25 Traveller Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Years ago, I made mud flaps for the Seven from a sheet of 5mm thick Neoprene rubber. Bonded two big head studs inside the lower edge of the wings with 2-part FS adhesive and attached the rubber with large washers and nuts (with a spot of loctite on the thread). If you make the rubber wide enough, it starts to curve at the sides and stays more rigid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vine Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I used these. Not cheap, but very effective. I trimmed them to a curved shape for better rigidity (as SM25T suggests ), and fixed each one with four socket button screws to match the standard CC wing fasteners. I wish I'd fitted them from new, as then I would've avoided all the gravel rash along the side panels (I've got Armourfend elsewhere). JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
