I've tried lining up rear guards against my box trailer and find the problem to be compensating for the taper in the beetle body that helps the
guards sit square (If that makes any sense). Also their length meant that I'd have bugger all ground clearance. The teardrop is probably different
though.

There are plenty of other old-fashioned guards out there which look good. For a trailer you want something which mounts to a flat vertical side, so
look for 1930s pickup truck fenders, which are available as reproductions in fibreglass or steel for hot rods.
