G'day everyone.
I've got a Troopy I'm just about to put flares on after recently fitting wider rims and rubber. The standard Toyota mud flaps on the troopy are now only about 2/3s the width of the tire and I was wondering how most people address this issue.
Does anyone know of a mud flap that you can buy for this application or should I go down the path of fabricating something myself to suit and if so what type of material would suit?

Thanks Notos,
I've seen plenty of DIY mud flaps but didn't know what the material was.
Thanks again!

Hi Manic,
Try a truck dealership or a
shop like Diesel Spares.
I have Mack ones - they are 60 cm x 33 cm.
As long as you don't mind having the Truck insignia on the flaps (in my case a large bulldog).
If they are too large you can always cut them back a bit I suppose.
Cheers,
Glen

Great, thanks Glen.
There's a Truckline store up my way so I'll take a look over the weekend.
