ABSTRACT:
A mudguard flap for attachment to a motor vehicle is provided having a flap main body and an adapter protrusion disposed upwardly from the flap main body. The adapter protrusion has a mounting area for attaching the flap to a fender-fold and for adjusting the flap to the chassis of a motor vehicle. In the present invention the adapter protrusion has a bending line thereon, which bending line follows generally the contour of the vehicle chassis in the vicinity of the place of attachment of the mudguard flap. The mounting area is bent along the bending line and is displaced from the plane of the unbent portion of the adapter protrusion to provide a bent angle of inclination, which when the mudguard flap is attached to the fender-fold results in the unbent portion of the adapter protrusion and the flap main body being at least generally parallel with the axis of the wheel.
