Difference between tail tidy, undertray & fender elimina

Hey guys, this is probably a retard question, but what is the difference between a tail tidy, an undertray and a fender eliminator. Are they all the same thing? If they're not do you have to choose one for your bike if you want to tidy the rear end up or can you have an undertray and a tail tidy together for example?

Edit: also while I'm at it can I clear up in my mind end cans and slip on exhausts are different right? An end can just goes on the end of the exhaust to make it nosier whereas the slip on slips on to the exhaust further down. What advantages does a slip on give you? Is it like /2 way between replacing the full exhaust system and a standard, so it will give you a bit better power or not much difference?

Cheers!

Tail tidy usually replaces the standard numberplate holder and indicator arrangement, usually have to cut up the the old parts to fit it.

An undertray does the above plus fits over/replaces the standard undertray.

A slip on can does exactly what it says on the tin. It slips ontgo the original header pipes replacing the standard can. It gives more power with a correct setup.

Fender eliminator/Tail tidy are the same thing!

People in the US call them Fender Eliminator's, we call them Tail Tidys Thumbs Up

OK, thanks, so both undertrays and tail tidys clear up the rear lights and numberplate and make it look better. I saw on another forum someone selling their rear hugger because they bought an undertray. If rear huggers keep all the crap from hitting your undertray and rear shock when riding, why would you no longer need a rear hugger once you have an undertray?

Its like selling a clutch lever, to buy a brake lever Wink
