Not cool. Small, unobtrusive but very effective. Made from some scrap traffic light hoods(!)

Ive got some but the cars stripped at the mo so no pics I can say is they keep all the cow dung ,stones, roadcrap and water off of my right arm and car sides.

The local council here likes to use the re-seal method instead of digging and fixing the tarmac.
This leaves ten thousand little tread size stones that shoot up like a rooster tail......and stone blast me....that stopped when I put the front flaps on.
As well as that I have a bright yellow car....it stays yellow for a heck of a lot longer with the muck catchers

Sorry not a good photo

Wouldn't be without mine now as they save stones & water up the side of the car

Made mine from 4mm flexible sheet rubber, cut to a template and then secured to the arches using pan head screws, Nyloc nuts & washers
They're flexible enough not to crack the arch but not too flexible that they don't really do anything
