Not much of an update yet, but just to let you know I haven't forgotten
about them...

It turns out that the backordered mudflaps that Just Kampers were waiting
for (and were already a month overdue already when I met with them in early
October), STILL have not shown up, making them over two months late at this
point.  This is resulting in quite a few irritated Just Kampers customers,
and obviously is a situation we don't want to duplicate here.

We are not going to make a move until the fabled mud flaps show up in
England, at which time we will get a weight, determine a direct
factory-to-US shipping price (hence a total cost), and place an order as
planned.  The shipper now claims they'll be in the UK in a week, so we'll
see.

I'll let you know as soon as actual mudflaps materialize.
