DuraFlaps

I just placed my online order for a pair of DuraFlaps - both front and rear (all with the Stainless Steel upgrade). I also had artwork (U S Army Star) added to the rears. With S&H it came to $357.

Why I mention this is because I remembered from past discussions they offer discounts to forum members (as well as military). As their instant chat was shut down I ordered them (as per above) with a question attached. In spite of them being closed within 10 min. I received this response:

" We do offer the military and forum member discounts. The military discount is (I deleted the pass key). Let your fellow military pals know about it " It continued with stating they will issue me a refund on that portion.

This is now my second pair - I previously found them very good at keeping the running boards free of crap and protecting my towed fifth wheel.
Excellent product, great company. Keep this discount in mind when you next need some mud flaps (don't be shy - you need to ask for it).

I purchased the no drill plain black flaps for my 2011 in Nov 2010 and they are still in good shape. Sturdy and functional. $170 shipped then.

This is my second set of them and I really like them as well. You do have to ask for the military discount, but they are super happy to apply it! I won't buy flaps from anyone other than them, plus they are a nice small business who really tries to go the extra mile.

I ordered the extra long rear flaps, which are great. I then lowered my rear 2 inches with the 2 inch block and now I think I wish I would have just ordered the standard length. Oh well!

Lots of people like the Duraflaps. Great to have them custom logo'ed too.

I've previously always had white trucks (better mileage - grin) and so I didn't add the bling; this time its a Blue Jeans blue and the sparkle will stand out. The Army Star Emblem also added costs but I suspect this'll be my last truck so went ahead with it too. If not now then I'd likely regret it going down the road.

I even considered customized flaps - with the words Wide Hips with a silhouette of a hip shapely gal. With the #MeToo movement I decided against doing that.

True to their word I've now been notified that a 10% discount has been retroactively applied and my revised bill now stands at $323.50 delivered.

I read in another thread that they offer a 10% discount for members, does anyone know how to get that? I'm not a vet, Tricky Dick saved me, but obviously am a member.

Place your order online and ask for it in the notes area of your order.
Or place order over the phone and ask for it.

In any case you must specifically ask for it.

Great people with a great product! I picked up my set from their Mfg facility in Grants Pass OR when I lived down there. They have been on 2 trucks now and have over 100,000 miles on them.
Very happy with the service and product!

Thanks for posting this thread. I never heard of these guys. I have an idea for a rear flap weight. I'll post up when I get them as it will not be cheap for the custom design. They look worth it though.

I had no additional weights on my first pair and I would say they are not needed. This being my last ever truck I opted for weights - but only for the 'bling' factor.

I ordered them on the 14 (or 15th) and they said allow 3 weeks for shipment. Yesterday I received notice they've shipped (but because I'm clear across the USA from them it'll be about a weeks travel time.

Thank you for your service. It is great when companies offer a little something for those who served. My dad always looked for the military discount :-).

Steve, are those the 12" wide? I'm trying to decide if I should go with the 12's or the 14's. Looking at the picture you posted it seems that the tire still sticks out a bit. Also, the black what looks like plastic piece on the bottom portion of the rear of bed behind the mud flap, is that aftermarket or is that stock on the 17 & 18's?

These are the 12" (narrower) DuraFlaps on my previous truck. If you blow the pic up you can see that they extend outside of the fenders. I found them more than enough to keep things (running boards and the 5th) clean.

Thanks Army Ret, that angle sure looks like they are wide enough - they look great (so does your truck), Have to wait till 8/13 to order mine but think I'm going to go with the 12" standard length drill-less. Since I have a Platinum I think I'll go with the "Satin", still debating on "3-bolt" or smooth.
