i drilled two (2) 1/2" holes in the lower front flange of each rear fender and 
three (3) same size holes in the rear flange of the fender -- also inthe front 
fender flanges, to serve as drain holes.  in this manner, each time you wash 
the car you can flush all the dogleg areas and eliminate any standing debris.
