 = Issues with rear mud flaps =
 If you install rear mud flaps, it is advised to drill two holes (fi=30 mm) in the bottom of the rear bumper, behind each mud flap (two holes per each side).
 That will enable the mud and grit, which regularly accumulates in the rear bumper behind the mud flaps, to drain off or be flushed out when power washing the vehicle. Otherwise, it is almost impossible to flush out.
 The holes will be invisible to the general public.
