Bowler sills and Extended mud flaps

Good evening Gents;

I see some people have to trim / notch there standard mudflaps

I have the Gwyn lewis relocation mudflaps...

Anybody any thoughts if they will work / fit? to me it looks like they will and actually is a better option to standard...

Pics for helping explanation.

I think if im lucky, the mud flaps will just slide in front of the sills?

It looks from the pics like it shouldn't be an issue with the Gwyn Lewis mudguards.

I so want the Bowler sills, they do look great! James

I have fairly chunky rock sliders fitted with the Gwyn Lewis kit and they just sit in front of them - even with my flap holes re-drilled to move them even further out (the joys of huge offset wheels and Cooper tyres)

I don't normally like those fender extensions but somehow they look good on yours Ross

I'm not sure what you're worried about likeomg but there's no interference with rocksliders, they're not even close to mine and i'm sure the bowler sliders won't have an issue either? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW
