It is necessary to install mud flaps on the chassis, as they can protect the car's paint. Mud Flaps: Mud flaps are plate-like structures installed behind the outer frame of the wheels, usually made of high-quality rubber or engineering plastic. They are typically mounted behind the wheels of bicycles or motor vehicles and can be made of metal, leather, plastic, or rubber. Function: As the name suggests, mud flaps are designed to block mud. They are installed behind the four tires of a car. The front two are fixed on the lower sills, while the rear two are fixed on the rear bumper. In fact, if purchased from a 4S store, installation is usually included. Those bought from the market or online come with installation instructions. After installation, the mud flaps extend about 5cm beyond the body of the car. This 5cm plays a crucial role in effectively preventing flying stones and gravel from damaging the car's paint.
