    Now the reason I posted the thread is we have so many people asking about mudflaps. This is specifically why I went with the softer flexible style of the plasticolor and the price point is way better as well than the OEMs. Better to rip a $12 flap than a $50 flap

    Have you considered going with metal mudflaps? Something like this? If it bends, just bend it back.

    So the mud flaps tore out while driving up the 'two phone book sized rock' you posed on?

    Should trade to a trd pro. image.jpg

    ...another year or so and you'll be able to buy the stuff in liquor stores up here. Ridiculous that it's taken this long for everyone to pull their heads out of their asses about the recreational use of marijuana. Think of how pissed off the pharmaceutical companies will be when marijuana is more widely used for stress, anxiety, and depression then the Rx shit pills Dr's seem to want to push.
