They seem to collect dirt and gravel inside since the back edge is open to the wheel well, so I drilled a small hole in the bottom so dirt has a chance to fall out.

I had to take them off a few weeks ago, so when I put them back on (and this is a mod I wanted to keep) I refined the design based on what I've learned on this site over the year. I'll try to get some pics.
