Thread: Does anyone do rubber Defender-like mud flaps for a D4? <EOM>

Agree.
My D4 is for towing the holiday home on wheels.
My serious off-road fun activities are in the past and out of my system now.

I wrecked a mudflap and mounting bracket on the Defender a while back by backing up a sand dune.
I ordered a genuine bracket from one of the English companies through eBay, since it has to be the right size.
I think mudflaps are disposable items, so I measured the size and thickness and then bought a cheap replacement in Supercheap and fitted it.
So far it has survived being pounded around western Qld and Tassie.
They all come from China anyway, don't they?
