The most important benefits of using this mud flap include:

• better protection of the rear left sill against dirt and stone chips,
• reduction of corrosion risk in a critical area of the bodywork,
• maintaining a consistent appearance of the side of the vehicle,
• easier cleaning of the sill area.

Placement on the vehicle and installation aspects

The mud flap is intended for installation in the rear – left side of the vehicle position. Thanks to the factory design, installation takes place at the points provided by the manufacturer, which promotes stability and proper drainage of debris from the sill area.
