Installation
Front Flap Installation: The front mud flaps attach directly to the lip of the wheel well using self-tapping screws, and existing factory fasteners can also be used if available. Installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools. Ensure at least 1/2" of clearance between the tire and the wheel well to accommodate the flap's thickness. The front flaps install flush with the wheel well, allowing for seamless integration with accessories like step bars, power boards, or side steps.
Rear Flap Installation: The rear flaps are secured using custom-fit rear support brackets along with one or two self-tapping screws to hold them tightly against the wheel well. This method ensures the flaps stay in place and do not flap into the tires, even under challenging driving conditions.
