ABSTRACT:
There is provided a flexible mud flap for securing to a fender of a vehicle comprising a main body portion with lower inside, outside and upper edges. An additional body portion is disposed above the main body portion and has a generally parabolically curved edge such that the vertex of the parabola lies on the upper edge of the main body portion and the distance between the vertex and the inside edge of the main body portion is approximately 0.3 to 0.4 of the distance between the inside and outside edges of the main body portion. The thus provided shape of the mud flap is universally securable to modern fenders, both back and rear fenders, while at the same time avoiding uncovered portions of the fender which will allow mud to be passed therethrough.
