This is second set I have put on a f series
used to use weather techs etc
But these ford branded ones go on easy
Fit, study, yet flexible
30 minutes Bing bang done
Don't want to thread hijack but...I was reading a thread recently that these in particular (I have a set in the garage yet to go on) allow a lot of road debris/grime to get in between the flap and the panel causing small scratches in the paint when removed. Any one have input on this?

you can add a piece of pp film
But on my f150, it had 22k miles with them on
I sm sure some grit gets in there
just rinse real good
wasn't an issue.
our roads are full of small tire catching rocks
these let the one ejected off fronts to bounce out
vice up

Thanks for the feedback. Based on that tread it seemed as if those covered areas from the splash/mud guards are destroyed when taking them off.
How do these install? Adhesive? Or screws or push pins, and if so into existing holes?
Pick up my first 250 tomorrow!
existing holes
Amd nut plates
The front get longer lower screws into nut plates already there and 2 fold over parts with a spring clip.
Easy
The rears come with push pins that are removable eith a small screw driver
and a stout bracket that connectes to truck amd inner part of flap
It also has ppm tape for the area the metal bracket touches.. it's stainless steel to.. I aslo use a 10/32 bolt and fat stainless washers on the metal straps attac point on the flap
mainly because the screw and nut plate included are sharp ...on backside
I use a thick rubber grommet on that contact area

Replace a couple screws on each and then push pins for the rest. Very simple to install and sturdy. The rears have a support bracket that goes on as well.

Yes, instructions in the package. No drilling. Remove and replace existing screws and push pins, as someone else stated.
No wheel removal required. For the front I just turn the wheels to make more room.

Unsurprisingly, those are same ones I had put on ordered truck. Can't remember what invoice was on that line item was (I paid invoice for the whole 2025 truck), but I'm pretty sure I got hosed. I am going to add a new hole to the rear's angle bracket to effectively make it shorter, pulling the inside edge away from the tire a little more. They look like they aren't square to the tire to me. Details, details...
I will probably add some clearbra film to the paint, too. But, if I didn't, if they got scratched underneath, the panel won't rust!

they are square..there is a slot on the bracket thst attaches to the rear sheet metal..just for that adjustment
Also they are flexible, but not floppy
I have folded them in half on the other truck
Bounced right back, afyer log was moved
