These are the bits that go over the rear arms? Id just get a flexible chopping board some cable ties a Stanley knife and go from there.

I've tried the kagama's mudguards and they don't fit.

POS Mudguards

Trim these as necessary. Fit and forget. They're tough as old boots.

Lexan / polycarbonate mudguards are thinner and lighter, whilst still flexible. I suppose there's nothing stopping you painting them up, either. 👍

Bitty design make a bunch of them for numerous buggy/Truggy designs - like these ones here for Mugen MBX buggy:

If you have any off-cuts from body shells, it's handy to keep for such projects. 👍

Here's a shot of them back in 2023, already fairly blasted! The wrap has craters! 🤣

Quite like the little front wings you can get for Mugen too I think these would probably fit a corally too.

So for the rear mud guards, are yall using existing holes in the lower rear arm for attachment or making your own as you see fit for ideal fitment?
 
Random question, does the uprightedness of the guards affect top end speed and in-flight control?

It's unlikely to affect anything. Truggy truck shell will cause parachuting. Guards would be negligible in comparison.

Guards definitely help protect your shock shafts from pitting and stone chips. 100% worth it, especially if you run on gravel or hard bonded surfaces.

Front tyres on 4WD cars turn debris into shrapnel.

The state on my guards after just the first few runs has demonstrated how much harm my shocks would have been exposed to otherwise.

Lots of good points there, I've definitely seen mine rear shocks covered in crap, but I was considering shock covers to preserve them from the elements , any thoughts on those?

Shocks covers good have them on all mine only negative is hard spot leaks or bent shafts if you get unlucky.
