Arrow Mud / Dirt Guard?

Could someone link me to where they get the mud / dirt / stone guards that go in front of the rear arms of a buggy and/or truggy? I believe I saw team novak stickers on it but I am not sure.

Thanks a bunch.

Most are custom made from flat lexan or 2 liter coke bottles lol,but some companies do make them for the popular buggies.

I'm guessing one of these may fit the RC8?

I bought a used RC8E and it had mudguards on it already. I believe that he said they were made by Kyosho. The Mugen ones look very similar though. Either way it'll be a custom fit. Line it up and drill pilot holes. Insert screws.

Make your own! For real it wil take you all of 30 min.! Good luck! Use leftover lexan from your body or get some from your LHS!

They fit right on or did you need to put holes in it?
