The ultimate mudflaps

Here it is folks, ExV10's front mudflaps. They don't get any better than this; $10 investment, they keep the running boards clean, they are simple, easy to install, and they look fine..........depending on who is looking at them.

If you can get past the looks (like I have) they work very well. You need that 4" sticking out to keep everything off the running boards and they aren't overly large.

Yea, the regular ones keep the debris off the bottoms of the boards but these keep it off the top. When you turn the wheel the debris flies past the flaps and the wind blows it back onto the top of the boards unless you have about 4" sticking out.

Ya, I don't think I'd get past the looks......


Plus, I usually get more crap on the back of the running boards from the back tires, or enough snow that flaps wouldn't do any good no matter how big. Can't find a pic of the back of the boards as of now.

I prefer the running boards/bars that are on my truck. You don't get much stuff trapped on them.
