Update: Right after posting my initial mods, I figured since I was already in the mood, had the time and energy, I went ahead and completed my custom rear mudguards as well! Another trip to ACE hardware for some more stair protector, nuts and bolts and were ready to finish this project!
As you can see the engine and clutch area is pretty exposed to stuff getting throw at it from the rear tires, especially my the Hostile MXT's. Were gonna fix that!
Get our tools and supplies setup once again and were off....
Start by getting a rough idea of how to align and cut the mudguard material. Once again, its measure, cut, check. Repeat!
Were going to once again use small nuts and bolts to hold the mudguards to the body. Drill time again!
Because this rubber material was pretty stiff, I needed to bend it to keep it in the proper placing. Using a lighter and slowly pressing it into position I got it bent how I wanted it
To make the mudguards look good on the undercarriage, I also attached a second piece to the rear of the body with nuts and then attached the separate peices with another bolt. Repeat for the other side
