Mud Guard PSA

HEY YALL.
If you remove your mud guards/flappy bits because you’re tryna fit bigger tires or just don’t like the way they look, you can use these panel pins to plug the holes nice and tidy. I stood in Oreilly’s for about 17 minutes trying to find something and I got ‘em. You need 3 per wheel. x 4 =12. They come in packs of 6. Fancy that. Buy two packs.

 

Electrical tape works too and is much cheaper, and everyone probably has it laying around

 

But my way looks so professional. Intentional. I like that feeling when it just pops right in, y’know?

 

Not sure people look at the inside of a wheel well often

 

That is a little bit of a different finish quality vs a clean solution like the OP proposed. Might as well just use duct tape. Personally I wouldn't remove the flaps because I like the paint on the side of my truck.

 

Call me nutty then. I suppose it’s more for myself than anyone peeking at my dirty wheel wells. Electrical tape works for plenty of things.

 

Mine is an 05. I can’t afford to like my paint. Fair point though. I just hate how they scrape everything and fade easily.

 

Agreed that "bzzzt" is so tactile-y pleasuring.
