Ya, but will it sustain hitting trees or rocks?

That is the beauty of these - I can repair them at minimal cost. I think if I brace them then if/when I do hit something I might be repairing more than I want to...

check my build thread for my mudflap mod.

Officer came out, didn't even look at the front, checked the back and wrote the ticket off.

According to the CA VC:
V C Section 27600 Fenders and Mudguards


Fenders and Mudguards

27600. No person shall operate any motor vehicle having three or more wheels, any trailer, or semitrailer unless equipped with fenders, covers, or devices, including flaps or splash aprons, or unless the body of the vehicle or attachments thereto afford adequate protection to effectively minimize the spray or splash of water or mud to the rear of the vehicle and all such equipment or such body or attachments thereto shall be at least as wide as the tire tread. This section does not apply to those vehicles exempt from registration, trailers and semitrailers having an unladen weight of under 1,500 pounds, or any vehicles manufactured and first registered prior to January 1, 1971, having an unladen weight of under 1,500 pounds.
Sooo you must cover the rear/ or whole tire somehow.
It looks like you have plenty of coverage
