At a glance

Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with customers praising the heavy-duty build, sharp appearance, and effective protection; the main negatives are high price and occasional issues with hardware, coating/finish, and instructions.

What Customers Liked

  • Sharp, “big rig” look; chrome brackets add shine; turns heads and gets compliments; pairs well with fender flares; offset/kickback design looks great on lifted/wide-stance trucks.
  • Extremely thick, sturdy rubber/plastic/nylon; feels like dump-truck/semi mudflaps; very heavy (e.g., ~26 lbs set); expected to last a long time/life of truck.
  • Reduces rock chips; stops throwback water, mud, and road debris (helpful for towing 5th wheels); good clearance with lifts and large tires.
  • Offset clears wheels well; works with 3–12" lifts, wide tires, wheel spacers, and fender flares; plenty of clearance for 35–40" tires.
  • Longer than needed and easy to trim to desired length with a razor; option to leave full length for taller lifts.
  • Many found mounting straightforward/easy and shipping quick; some praised exceptional customer service.

Things to Consider

  • Frequently described as expensive/pricy (examples cited ~$450 for front+rear; ~$703 for set of four).
  • Screws for attaching flaps to brackets described as too small/short; missing nuts in at least one kit; some replaced with longer bolts/locknuts; silver fasteners on black kits didn’t blend in.
  • One report of paint/powder coat scratching easily and flaking; concern about rust resistance based on prior experiences with other brands; one part arrived brushed instead of chrome.
  • Instructions could be clearer (label left/right brackets, pre-drilled holes); some installs were tricky/time-consuming, requiring custom drill patterns; worst part for some was removing wheels/tires.
  • If left untrimmed on some setups, can sit close to the ground—need to watch curbs or trim per instructions.
  • One reviewer worried removable lower section could become brittle/break in winter conditions (not confirmed).

Perfect for my truck, offset clears the wheel nicely. I have 3” lift with 35x12.5r20 wheels and tires. Had to attach to fender flares, but still solid. Very good quality product.

With the wheels being black and milled the stainless steel and black bow tie set the side view of this off perfect. Now it's not only nerf bars that and small amount of bright shine one the wheels. This has almost completed the build of this truck.
