MJIbex Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Have ordered 5.5 metres of this; it is going on the Ibex to hopefully stop a somewhat irriating problem! Can you guess what it's hopefully going to be? Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco tony Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I think you've been misled, sometimes people refer to the wing extensions (spats) as "eyebrows", but I think you've missed the point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Are you giving it an emo haircut? A monotone Hula skirt? A rather grand mustache? Or is it a new kind of super prototype windscreen wiper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Train Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 It's an interesting pattern (can't see it very well for the draught excluder) but I find that plan black or black rib matting works better in the footwells unless you have brushed steel door pulls and marble effect laminate for the dash.

steve_d Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 You conveniently stow it on the edge of your wheel arches then at the end of a day in the mud you pull it of and use it to clean your wheels. What did I win? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco tony Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 is it a new door seal? slightly better than genuine ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJIbex Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Are you giving it an emo haircut?A monotone Hula skirt? A rather grand mustache? Or is it a new kind of super prototype windscreen wiper? Mr Freezer wins the prize for multiple great ideas. But it's bye bye conveyor belt, hello Hula skirt. I'm bored of ripping it off and spliting the wheel arches. I'm wondering how effective it will be at stoping the mud!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Train Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Would that be sufficiently legal? I thought the requirement was for not seeing any tyre tread from above to protect the public from accidental contact with the tyres. Brushes wouldn't be rigid enough, not that it makes much difference in reality anyway when it comes to high ground clearance vehicles. Don't know if it will be effective in that full throttle blast out of a mud hole. Brushes barely stop the water spray from truck tyres on the motorway.
