Just had a quick look at one of my underseal pics with the rear arch liner removed.



Whilst you could feasibly attach a flap to the front of the arch, the OEM "flaps" already protrude lower than the body, so the only extra protection afforded by fitting an aftermarket one would be to the outside of the arch, and in order to do that you would have to fit it so that it protrudes a reasonable distance and that ain't gonna look pretty. They'd look crap if they stuck out too far when fitted in the correct place, nevermind the front of the arch.

TL; DR: don't do it. ;)

Ask around nearby for 'Paint protection films' there's recently been an advancement in this field in which you can get self healing vinyls - stuffs brilliant, but expensive. However just for your regular PPF it'll be cheaper (Basically a clear wrap!)


And for those wondering you can get 'clear wraps' on your car to change it from gloss to satin to matte and in reverse :thumbsup:

Yeh, thats an option but it dont stop the RTR skirts getting dirty! I only have to look at a poxy puddle and the skirts are filthy. Front flaps will stop most of it but I get this little pile of dirt at the rear most part of the skirts...bugs me.

Travel around with a flask full of soapy water and two cloths, to clean it off with... No but seriously, I know how annoying it must be! Especially in one spot! :frusty:

Yeh, I have considered them lots. Gibbo managed to fit them with the RTR skirts that I have too. Not sure on them.
