Yeah, I know I can buy much cheaper mud flaps/splash guards...but you get what you pay for.

I can (and probably will) get the Husky Liners molded no-drill flaps for $50 for the set...and I suppose they'll do the same basic thing...they just won't look nearly as good.

Oem stuff is always super overpriced on things like that. No surprise. If you just have to have the shiny ford logo on mud flaps, pony up I guess.

a little cheaper.


we have GM stuff, and buy the parts we need on gmpartsdirect. this seems to be the equivalent. usually a cheaper price than the dealer or shop an get it for.

yeah, I'm finding them in the same price range...but gawd-dammit...that's still over $360 for some bits of rubber.

Unfortunately, the Gatorback flaps are just fucking expensive...logo or not.

Meh, very thick rubber, semi sized flaps are around $15 each, enough material to make two for that. Screw on, so what?

A truck can be too pretty. ;)
