Hey Dave et al,

Thanks for the great suggestions and resources. Dave Im not to fussy at all
and re-thinking this for winter I think that plastic is probably my best
option. So I think that I will hunt for CHEAP ones of the Jetta type (thanks
for that tip Dave), or maybe Santi Claws would bring me some vanagon disc
ones!

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on mudflaps, but $149 is not cheap
for me. I am looking at this more from the DIY approach or the modding
something to fit that already is out there. So let me know if you know of
something along those lines.

Thanks,
Tony
