What is the best mudflap out there for the Bronco?

[Daktari]

These have been around for months. They are available on other sites for far less. And a set with non ford logos is now available for even less.

oh, finally. Still pricy but I just ordered a set for the front, really can't stand that rooster tail of crap up on the sides and rear fenders. Don't want the logos on there anyway, no need to draw extra attention to them, black will blend in nicely. Not getting the rear ones, don't tailgate me I guess. Not that there are many rocks on the roads here usually. If need be I might add some generic ones in the back someday.

Just saw this on Instagram

A plain piece of rectangular plastic with a cheesy logo in the corner…. This is what we have to look forward to?

For what it's worth, you can get a black piece of plastic with a black logo so it doesn't quite stand out as much. I'm not big on advertising either. Hey, sometimes simple solutions are the best. I haven't seen it in person but their flaps get great reviews.

I'm not even really a flap guy but everyone complains so much about the rocks and mud thrown up that it has me at least considering it.

I normally hate yellow cars but your bronco is SICK.

Well done!

If they're under $30, I could live with that.

While I agree with you 100% that tailgaters are annoying af, those rocks can go pretty far. It would be pretty cool of you to still address the rear tires knowing how bad the stock tires are with throwing those rocks up.

I speak from experience how much it sucks chilling in the right lane when someone passes you on the left and a rock still manages to find your windshield.

I added the Ford $50 set to the front and it has made a huge impact over the last few days of driving.

Do the $50 Ford ones just screw on? Wondering how easy they come off if needed for off-roading. My concern with the gator back design is the hard plastic still hangs below the rails and would get destroyed.

the Ford ones seem to hang at least as low as the hard plastic part of the gatorbacks.

As a follow up question, for those using their broncos for more aggressive off roading, are you just running with no mud flaps at all? Seems like having a quick-release system would be ideal.

Agreed. That's why i was wondering about attachment and if they could be removed/reattached easily. From the install video I've seen, I don't think so.

There is actually only one screw and the rest of it is fastened on with their metal clamps or those plastic pins that hold on interior panels and stuff (I'm not sure what they are called).

The one thing I didn't like was that they want you to drill a hole into the plastic fender flare but I didn't do that because if I ever upgraded, I did want holes drilled in my flares. I didn't add those two fasteners and it has not seemed to make a difference. I have about 300 miles on them so far.

They go on and off with a couple of screws and a couple push pin lockers, and a couple of clips if you go that route.

$700+ for four rubber flaps? What do you think the profit margins are on those? 300%? 500%?

I'm sure someone will make a basic rubber flap set (with no logos!) that is compatible with the rock rails for <$100.
