    Here in the Midwest in the 70's most of us who had big tires and drove our cars regular basis had a mudflap or splashgaurd of sorts. I had some on mine for awhile. I never had a cb antenna on mine but most of my buddies did. I hated CB redneck stuff and disco music. Still do. But, with that said, I am a redneck lol.

    vaseline on the bottem side works. but you can go mud flaps, curb feelers, and some big hundred spokes with chopers. your call.

    Geddex, the company that makes the dial in markers, makes a product called Burn out Guard. Works really well and is water-soluble

    Don't worry guys, i have the fuzzy dice covered. I dont like them in my field of vision, so they hang off that clip next to the rear quarter glass!!! They are from Hot August Nights!
