    So what exactly happens to your fender flares? I never would have thought to trim them. Is it that the tire grabs the flaps in mud while going in reverse?

    When driving at highway speeds the mud flaps tend to buffet in the wind, rubbing the fender flair paint strait through. i removed mine before this would happen.

    I found they were scraping while driving over things like speed bumps, curbs, etc
    But have not had any problems since they were cut.
