Yeah that's a good idea too!
The extended guard would serve to protect my dynamo light from spray as well. As it is mounted below the rack.The other option is getting some VO mudguards - appearantly they are 25 cm(!!) longer than the bluemels currently fitted! Or a set of GB Stainless
-EDIT-
GB are cheaper than VO.. Will definitely go for GB

Read on annoter thread (don't remember where, current projects I think) that you can't really fiddle with the radius of stainless steel mudguards (GB) like you can with aluminium ones (VO, Honjo, etc), which I didn't know and would make me think twice before buying GBs (although I had them before and they are great, sturdy, etc.)
This is functional bike wisdom. Alternatively a sheet of plastic fitted to the underside of the rack achieves the same spray protection
