    Just installed some rock sliders, but I needed to remove the front OEM mudguards, because they were too rigid and would not bend to accommodate the sliders. I'm looking for good mudguards for use on and off road, that are flexible and will work with the sliders. For reference here is a pic of my sliders

    Thanks guys. Anyone with personal experience with either of these brands, and can vogue for the reliability/durability?

    I have rekgen, there firm enough to not flap in the wind but flexible enough to flex over rocks and stuff, haven't had them on for long so ill see about durability in extreme cold considering they are plastic.

    I like the look of the rekgen and their price. So I'm tending towards them.

    Ikea cutting boards if you are a cheap mofo. Was a super popular mod in the rally subie crowd before rokblokz and stuff came around.

    So just a follow up question. Right now I'm at stock height with stock tires, but eventually I will lift and put on larger ties (33in most likely). I am thinking of pulling the trigger on the Off Road XL version of the Rekgen, so that I won't have to be making a second purchase. Would this be an issues with the stock setup?

    Thanks for your reply. I ended up buying the normal Rekgens. When I put on 33s I'll cross that road lol

    Rekgenz look nice. Are they adjustable to account for wheel offset? I got rockblox but am curious if rekgenz have the same feature.

    The rekgen's are firmly flexible, if that makes sense. They won't flap in the wind, but I had one almost double over when I was reversing too close to a curb, and nothing happened to it at all.
