ABSTRACT:
There is provided a combination of a universal mudguard for motor vehicles and at least one clamp for attaching the flap to the fender fold of the vehicle. The mudguard comprises a main body flap, an adapter protrusion at the top thereof to align the mudguard flap with the contours of the vehicle chassis, and an upper edge on the main body flap which joins with an inner edge of the adapter protrusion. The clamp has an open end, which is engageable with the said upper edge of the main body flap and an adjacent portion of the fender fold, and a closed end spaced from the open end. The improvement in the clamp is that of having generally two parallel clamping jaws held together by at least one bolt, the closed end having a crosspiece projecting from one of the jaws and abutting the other jaw, and at least one jaw at the open end having at least one bent over corner end area wherein the direction of the bend is toward the other jaw.
