Ya probably, but we shall see, I'll warm her up and trim some off if need be.

Hope it works for you, if it doesn't get caught up on anything, it'll do the job of a hugger.

it keeps the debris out from the shock area and works well. and after a few trips it all looks like the road.

Really you would not even notice it unless you were looking for it and even then with a little trimming you could make the lines smoother for a more intergrated look.
