Default spats AND mudflaps

has anyone got any pictures of classics with spats AND mudflaps fitted? just wondering what it would look like. I'm planning on fitting flaps regardless but don't know whether to keep the spats on or not...opinions?

classic, preferably silver with colour coded skirts.

For you information, 'Spatts' are the rear skirt. You are referring to splash guards.

cheers man, was looking at this pic a while back. from a distance it looks good but close up there will be a bit of a gap at top of flap as the 'splash guard' doesn't sit flush with the arch.

No, one or the other for me too. Was thinking of removing the skirts/splash guards on the RA and fitting flaps, not sure yet

let me no what you decide cos i am confused as well but i am thinking if you put both on them then mudflap will not fit flush and will have the gap.

i think its going to be flaps without guards. the gap it will leave with guards i think will make it look untidy. shame really as my guards are bonded on i have to get the skirts re-sprayed
