Mud flaps, what to get?

I just picked up my 2012 F250 CC SB 4x4 Lariat Golden Bronze Metalic with the FX4 and Camper Package and other goodies and need to know what are the best mud flaps for these trucks to protect the lower body panels.

Share what you have and pictures if you have them. I want to get them ordered. Right now I am trying to decide between the Weathertech and Husky mud flaps.

Thanks in advance for your help.

LOVE the truck!!!!
Pat

I went with these -

Air Hawk Industries : Mud Flaps - Grille Inserts - Box Liners

I'm very happy with them. The install was a breeze, they're very solid, and they protect really well. I like the look of them too, they're real stainless and nicely done.

Sorry I don't have any pics yet, hopefully in the next day or two I'll get around to it.

I have the Husky, cheapest place I found was on Amazon. You do have to drill a couple holes but they're very easy to install. I have the factory 20" wheel/tire setup and on the fronts I could turn the tires enough to do the install. On the rears I had to remove the tire so I had enough room to run the screw gun. Very happy with the final product.

Mine came with Ford front and rear mud flaps and wheel liners from Ford factory. I have 2012 F-350 CC DRW King Ranch, and so far absolutely happy with the current set up. No problems driving on muddy and gravel roads...as I tow horse trailers.

I went with the no drill duraflaps. I thought the huskys were to short for much protection on gravel roads, (20 miles of gravel every time I leave the house). I like the air hawks also. never have seen the weathertechs. good luck, there are a lot of great choices.

Ditto on the Huskys. I didn't bother with the one screw that you have to drill on the rears. You have the other that screws up from the bottom and holds it plenty tight. That's 2 screws in the front of the fender, 1 screw from the bottom and 1 screw into the factory flap. They look good and are functional. I paid $40 for each set.

What do these look like? I realize mudflaps are not mandatory items but if it reduces the amount of mud I have to clean out from between the lower door jamb then I may consider it.
