Didnt I have a mudflap resto in one of the convoy mags? IM pretty sure there was.
I had two originals, the small ones were still on my C60..heavily painted over which had completely protected them throughout the decades, and damaged large rear ones.
to repro, the larger rear, I was loaned an NOS flap to use as a pattern.
There were NO metal reinforcements/stiffeners in either. adding lateral reinforcement were fibreboard strips in the very bottom section. with a thin (!) amount of horsehair filler in each section to give a slight volume and padding(?)
when I reprod my large rear ones, I used a metal plate instead of the fibreboard to give added weight in addition to lateral stiffness.
