Do I need to fill in the back of my new Bushwhackers?
Newbie here. Just got new bushwhacker fender flares put on my jeep, and they look great.....but they are hollow behind, and I'm worried about mud and gunk getting stuck up inside and making everything behind them rust. Any ideas on what I should use to seal them up? Or if I need to worry?
(I searched through the threads and didn't find any one else who had this issue?)
Maybe I'm just a worry wart, but I'd like to keep my jeep looking nice and rust free : D
Had a few spots on it that I ground off and took care of pretty well....but you never know.
Thanks in advance!

Guess most everyone just worries about keeping mud off the glass as much as possible, don't worry about the rest. They didn't even do that very well and I removed mine for more clearance on trails/trees etc. that was I tore one off anyway I wheel mine a lot not a DD.

When you trim your fenders make sure you paint the exposed metal. Otherwise you're good. Hit it with the hose from the inside of the fender when muddy.
