To "flap" or not to "flap"

Lose them. I did, and don't regret it one bit. My BFGs pick up and sling rocks, but no damage has been done...and it looks better!

 

My rear ones disappeared the first time I off roaded my 09 when it had 20km on the odo lol. The front ones I took off a couple of weeks later when my lift kit and 33s arrived. The 33s wouldn't turn with the front mud flaps on. 100K later the truck had suffered lots of little chips along the bottoms of the rockers just behind the tire, but that area is painted with rocker gaurd underneath the paint so it didn't really matter to me. I didn't know somebody was making flexible mud flaps for tacos. I might have at least put rear ones one if I'd known...

 

My rears disappeared on mine off roading too. Liked the look so much with just the fronts I never felt the need to replace. haha

 

Take them big ass flaps off!
