This is mainly for anyone who has a Motortrike kit and wanted to add mudflaps without drilling holes in your fenders
I was out a few weeks ago with a buddy coming back from Charleston SC and we got caught in a torrential downpour. He told me I was throwing 2 big rooster tails of water off the rear tires of my trike. I came up with a solution to add mudflaps without drilling any holes in the rear fenders
I took 2 dead license plates I had that are aluminum and cut 2 10" wide and 14" long sections from a semi truck mudflap I also had here. Some stainless steel 1/4 20 hardware to bolt the tag and mudflap sections together. I then mounted my setup using the existing studs from the tail lights
I plan on adding 6" dual function red LED strip lights near the bottom of the flaps in the future
