    I did alot of searching, and only found one brand that made some for the '10 Taco...And I didn't like the way they looked, so I opted to just trim the front mudflaps...It was easier than I expected

    Does the trimming affect how much splatter gets on your truck?

    Yes, depending on how much you trim/shorten the flap.

    Haha, yeah I was wondering since they were so low that if there was a certain amount of trimming that wouldn't affect it too much

    Nope, I trimmed all of mine off with a dremel and I get no splatter. It looks like there are no mudflaps too! Crazy I tell you, crazy!
