Default Today's mod custom front wheel mudflap

I started out thinking I would go to the stealer and buy a mudflap. But the one I like was a big $ 75.00 . So this is what I cam up with for $27.00. I cut this out of a piece of 1/4 rubber sanded the edges round with 80 grit sandpaper use all stainless steal screws. And I'm more then happy with it. It looks like its store bought but it's not .

Real nice--Why not make a bunch of 'em up, & sell 'em at bike events? Guaranteed you'll sell out!
