The other day I ended up removing my front fender liners shortly after washing the car. The wire harness on the driver's side was pretty wet. Generally I get a a bad feeling from dripping-wet wiring.

The forward portions of the liners have some damage from rubbing with my race tires, but the rear parts (of the front liners) are fine. They had also never been off the car before.

There's a flange running along the inboard side of the liner that appears to be designed as protection from water splashing up vertically. I was spraying the wheels off, so there would have been water bouncing back up in there closer to horizontally. Maybe that flange isn't working so well.

Has anyone dealt with this? Maybe it's not such a big deal. Any retrofit measures? One thing I would definitely not want to do would be to add something in there that ended up trapping even more water - or that slowed the rate of evacuation of water that came from another source.

Thanks for any suggestions.
