This is the smaller one. I figured the larger one would look too dicky on a 'small' 4WD. And this size is just fine for mine.

Alot of people refer garden edging as "bunnings flares".

IMO Cheap and nasty, but effective.


EDIT: I'm not sure if that's what zooky has.

Considering it's from bunning I would say it would be some kind of cheap garden edging
Does the job nd it sits flat against the car/flare

Where did you see it? the only stuff that Clark Rubber sells is the stuff pictured in 35mm or 50mm, it also has a couple of different mounting profiles, flat or to the guard lip.

I have never seen those garden edge bunnings flares look any good they are ugly plastic crap and alway look rough as guts. You may as well cut up a plastic rubbish bin and screw that on.
