    I've also got Rekgen's. I purchased my Taco with the stock mudguards, but I had to remove the front ones to fit my sliders. The Rekgens are flexible and durable. I had one of my rear rekgens almost fold over and return to it's original shape with no issue whatsoever.

    Where did you get these? Three years later any issues? Looks like I need to get rid of my oem flaps. Put on some geolander yokos and they pick up rocks and throw them like crazy.

    Went with Rekgens.

    Look great, easy install, prob 20$ overpriced.

    Very happy regardless

    I didn’t even think about the fact my 2 week old truck doesn’t have mud flaps until I had to do several miles of gravel tonight. Very painful drive hearing the constant thwack of rocks hitting the rockers and doors. Mud flaps will go on ASAP!

    I picked up some Rekgen flaps and love them so far. I drive a few miles of gravel most days and don't hear anything hitting the sides like I did before.

    I did the larger ones too get a little extra coverage and future plans for slightly wider tires or negative offset wheels

    These look really cool, do you have more pics?

    Do the fronts mount in a way that accommodates bigger tires?

    I’ll have to take more later on. Just took a few while in the process of installing them.

    Yes, the flaps have horizontal mounting holes so they can be adjusted side to side.

    Just put on my OEM mudflaps any suggestions to make sure these screws won’t get torn off some of them feel stripped already. Plastic sucks

    dont over tighten, if they fall out use some glue in the hole or use a little bigger screw, worst case use a bolt and nut.......2 nuts will have to come out before it will get loose

    Those look good. I need to add some to my 2022 DCLB. Can you elaborate on who BAM is and their service/price? Thanks!

    ugh, why the extra/faux bolts in the middle? hopefully they release a plain UR flap. That's what I had on my old WRX and loved how flexible they were

    LOL! They aren’t faux. The top section of the flaps is a harder material. The bottom section is UR. I had full UR flaps on my truck for years before they designed these. I just retro’d on a set of their universals.

    With the Rekgen mud guards, I watched an install video Rekgen. For the inside screw with the spacer, the guy never removed a factory screw. Is there a screw there? If not, why would there be a threaded boss? I’m assuming there is a factory screw but he just removed it off-camera. If anyone has installed them it would be nice to know for clarification. Also, does the “spacer “ hold up well? Thanks.
