Rear wheel well inserts?

Not sure why Ford is not installing the rear wheel inserts on the 11's on the front side of the box. Anyone have a easy fix for it before it gets packed with mud.

Go to your Ford parts guy and have him look up the flaps for a 2002. They give a more finished look, but in the last 4 years I've owned my 06 I haven't really noticed any reason to actually need them.

10-4, I was just thinking about it as when the tires are throwing mud it will collect in the front as well as the rear and is ALOT faster to clean it out. Not sure why Ford didnt include them on the 11's as we have been complaining ever since they were left off...

There have been no front guards since '05. For '05, they had neither front nor back. In '06 they did bring the rear guards back.
