My wife has officially named it "The Batmobile". She's not very fond of the wings, But they do come in handy as a bench seat in the woods. They don't block mud @ all, Wish they did.

Drinks and Your backside, They have also proven to be very strong after bashing tree's. I took a hit awhile back that i know would have trashed my old tree bars but because of the extra material and stainless steel rivets, the damage was minimal.

These are probably the best pictures i have from the side. I'v got the aluminum off right now while i'm rebuilding, I can get you a better picture tomorrow if you want. There better @ catching mud than blocking it though. Those front tires and rims are the ones i proposed to trade you in the PM i sent.

If you made it go up to the back of the front tires and back of the back tires it would block most of the mud. But i think it would be ugly as sin. Trying to design one thats removable, no luck so far on fasteners.
