Does depend upon the terrain, but something to consider if you go to pay and play sites.
You can of course tie them up out of the way if you hit the rough stuff, at which point they are pointless
However I still wanted to stop the mud finding all the hiding places under the wheel arch, in particular the rear arch which was a mud trap. So I made some alloy mud shields and fitted them in the arch to stop mud getting between the body and the chassis. They work very well, but it's a DIY solution.
The Jimny has similar issues at the rear, so if I was to off-road mine I would look at doing similar.
Just a suggestion.

Think it would be worth leaving a fill piece where you have cut out? or not really possible? would like to try and keep muck and spray out of the rear light area in the bumper cavity

Ive actually vinyl wraped the outside of a set to make them matt finish and I've done a set of checkerboard ones the same. I layed the vinyl on the floor sticky side up. Layed my mudflap on top and cut around the edge with a scalpel. Came out perfect. I think the vinyl was around £10.

I can confirm they are in fact shiney and not matt as I have had a set from them before. But if you do want a set from them as they are really good quality, the exhaust side bracket with need chopping off on the exhaust side as it will interfere.
Rally armour ones are matt finish but they are narrower and they do have a slightly different fitting so I couldn't advise them on the Gen4. They are also more expensive.
As I use Cad software on a daily basis, if such as yourself JackBates wanted to make a set out of their own material I would be more than happy to draw a template up for you guys that are identical to mine if you wanted a full D.I.Y set up. I can also include a bracket template also. I can also provide DXF files if you wanted to go the full hog and get them water jet cut etc. Just a friendly offering as I enjoy doing stuff like that anyway.

Would mean I have a choice in materials and I'm picky like that....
