Default Mud Guards

I was considering getting some, but I wanted to poll first.

I think they look good, if you get the contoured ones for your specific vehicle. If you just get the flat ones that don't wrap the fenders they look like sun-dried poop.

I would never put them on any of my vehicles... but to each their own. So I voted "Look OK, not on my truck!"

I've got them. I like them and I feel I need them due to the area I'm in.

It figures...
Today I was one of those that voted for "Look OK, not on my truck!"
Then I wash I truck at lunch so I can take some new pictures of my truck with it's tonneau cover. However, on the way back to work I came across I closed road and I am forced to go down a dirty, wet road. As I'm taking pictures, I see the mud thrown onto the body where it would have been protected by mud gaurds. Uuugghhhh... back to the car wash for me.

The problem I had was after the tires where 'dressed' the extra stuff flew off the tires onto the fenders. No big deal, but I can just imagine mud on the hood!

Today is my B'day and the wife is buying me Husky floor mats and the Mopar mud flaps I voted "looks good got to have them" but there should be another answer in there that says "need them to stop scratches". I will be installing them as soon as it stops raining here and will snap a few pics.

Ok here is what I found out I have the factory 20's and you can't drill the holes for the rear mud guards, you would have to take the tires off to do it. So until I hit 6K miles and rotate the tires I have the rear installed with the three screws that are existing in the truck. They look good I will get some pics tomorrow after a good wash.
