Bahahahahahahaah!!!! Rolling with laughter that be worth a pic!!! Mad Max Freelander 2!!! Rolling with laughter
If ya hit a roo at any speed a "roo bar" ain't going to help! That includes emu's aswell!! I grazed one in my FL1V6 doing Sydney to Perth, that's East Coast to West Coast for you guys.
Road Trains are the only thing that can deflect a Roo! MY15

So the consensus is ... don't bother?
Even on say a 40Km outback road? Hmm... maybe these bogan flaps 'll do it.

Maaaaate. I wouldn't been seen dead with the flaps or the balls!

I just think the LR ones are ugly... but I want the protection they offer as we're off-roading more any more.

I'm glad that I got mudflaps on my Dynamic fitted from new. JLR never made a set compatiable with the body styling pack. On the day of collection the the sales/receptionist herself said that a few people had commented that they were told that mudflaps were not available Whistle

I got mine from a company in Germany and they would pass as a genuine set if JLR made them Wink MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
