Which rear fender to avoid splash on top box?

I´m riding almost always with my top box, and when it rains the box is getting very dirty, especially around the handle/key area. I guess a longer rear fender could avoid this problem.
Any ideas of which to buy? I´ve looked on Wunderlich and Touratech type yet.

I have the Touratech on my bike and it works fine. Minimal spray on topbox.

And I have the Wunderlich; it also works just fine.

Okey, so both of them works. I think I'll go for the Wunderlich, since it can be height adjusted and I think it´s looks fits better to the bike...

Make your own with materials from Lowe's Motorcycle Parts. See my earlier post for directions and pix:

Would a rear mudguard from a R1200GS fit/work?
