I ordered the F-250 badges GB flaps last week and was amazed by the quality and weight when I got them in my hands. I tossed around the idea of attempting to mount them without the special mounting bracket kit but after seeing everyone on here's pics of the them installed with brackets i bit the bulltet and ordered the bracket kit this morning from sharptruck.com
also, after seeing how awesome and personal the customer service is (see the above memeber from sharptruck). I have decided to use them for all my truck related needs going forward. Also they had the lowest price I could find!

Orondo,
Make sure when you are ordering the F350 flaps you get the newest style. The old F350 style comes with stainless steel hardware and you do not want that on the aluminum body.
Also the no-drill mounting brackets will be needed to make sure the flaps are properly secured on the truck. The wheel wells of the Super Duty do not have enough of a surface to correctly mount the flaps. The brackets are custom designed for the new Super Duty and are aluminum so you will have no issues with galvanic corrosion.
Here is where you can find the new F350 logo flaps: https://www.sharptruck.com/gatorback-f-350-mud-flaps
and here are the brackets: https://www.sharptruck.com/truck-har...-flap-brackets

If you send us the old style F-250's back we will swap them with the new logo for you.
There are 2 different lengths, the standard size is 12"x23". There are 12"x26" available. You do get 3" extra of rubber. It really is a personal preference, the 26's will hang lower.

That's good to hear! I'm just happy we can get helpful information out to everyone. Trucks and accessories cost too much money to be buying and installing things that don't look the best they can. And frankly it can get a bit confusing

Just what we were discussing in WeighSafe thread. Manufacturer sells but holds the line on prices which gives the retailers an opportunity to discount a little and make their bucks without having to compete with a manufacturer who discounts as well!
