Featuring heavy-duty rubber flaps and officially licensed black Bowtie logos on polished 304 stainless steel plates, these mud flaps are built to endure tough conditions, ensuring your Silverado stays protected and looking impressive wherever you go.

Front and Rear Mud Flaps

The Gatorback Black "Bowtie" Mud Flaps are custom-engineered to fit your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 perfectly, providing extensive tire coverage to protect against rocks, mud, gravel, snow, and other road debris. The front flaps extend 6.5" below the fender, while the rear flaps provide 7" of coverage, keeping your truck cleaner and reducing paint damage. This complete coverage is ideal for Silverado owners who want to maintain the pristine appearance of their vehicle while taking on challenging driving conditions.

Constructed from 1/2" thick heavy-duty virgin rubber, these mud flaps are resilient and flexible, effectively deflecting debris while retaining their shape. Each flap features an officially licensed Chevrolet Bowtie logo die-stamped into a 304 polished stainless steel plate, measuring 10 1/4" x 5". This premium stainless steel plate adds a stylish accent to your truck while offering excellent resistance to rust and corrosion for all-weather performance.

Effortless Installation

Installing the Gatorback Black "Bowtie" Mud Flaps is straightforward, with no drilling required into your Silverado's body. These mud flaps use existing factory mounting points, and all necessary hardware, including custom-fit rear support brackets, are provided for a secure installation. The installation process is designed to be convenient, with the mud flaps fitting flush inside the wheel well, ensuring compatibility with step bars, power boards, or side steps. The factory mud guards are removed and replaced with the Gatorback mud flaps, and a color-matched fender plug is provided to cover the small hole left from the front guard removal, ensuring a clean and seamless fit.

Virgin Rubber: Rubber that has not been recycled or reclaimed, ensuring superior durability and flexibility compared to recycled rubber.
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer): Refers to parts made by the vehicle manufacturer. These mud flaps are designed to work with OEM mounting points for an ideal fit.

Warranty

Truck Hardware Gatorback Black "Bowtie" Logo Mud Flaps are backed by a limited lifetime warranty. This warranty covers the rubber portion against tear-offs for the lifetime of the product for the original owner. The warranty provides peace of mind, offering a replacement if the rubber flaps come off due to normal wear and tear. However, it does not cover damage resulting from abuse or regular wear on brackets, plates, or mounting hardware.

Product Care & Maintenance

304 Stainless Steel Plate: To maintain the polished finish of the stainless steel plates, clean them regularly with a soft cloth and a mild detergent cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could scratch or damage the surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to maintain their premium appearance.
Virgin Rubber: Clean the rubber portion using a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or petroleum-based cleaners, as these can degrade the rubber over time. Rinse thoroughly and allow the mud flaps to air dry for the best results.

At a glance

Overall sentiment is strongly positive: buyers consistently describe Gatorback/SharpTruck mud flaps as premium, heavy‑duty, great-looking, and highly effective at stopping rocks/mud/snow from hitting paint, steps, and trailers. The main reservations are the high price and occasional installation/fitment or hardware/packaging issues, which are often mitigated by responsive customer service and strong warranty support.

What Customers Liked

Thick, heavy rubber with substantial weight plates; feels “OTR/semi-truck grade,” doesn’t flap at highway speeds, flexible in cold weather, holds up through winters, gravel roads, mud, and years of use; many repeat buyers across multiple trucks.
Significantly reduces rock chips, road debris, mud/salt spray on paint, rocker panels, running boards/power steps, cameras, and keeps trailers/5th wheels/RVs cleaner and protected; coverage often better than OEM or plastic splash guards.
Looks “sharp,” classy, and truck-specific; logo/plate options (Z71, AT4X, Ford, Ram, Duramax, flags, black/satin/gunmetal/chrome) get compliments and help the truck stand out; finishing caps appreciated.
Many report perfect/vehicle-specific fit with factory-hole mounting, adjustable in/out positioning, good clearance with stock tires, and compatibility with certain trims/fender flares when configured correctly.
Generally described as straightforward with the right tools; helpful YouTube videos; bracket kits (especially rear/dually) add stability and make alignment easier; ability to install without removing wheels on some vehicles.
Frequent praise for fast shipping, responsive support, quick exchanges for wrong parts, replacement parts/plates/flaps shipped rapidly, and hassle-free warranty (including tears/rips or shipping damage).
Replaceable plates; removable lower section on some models for off-road clearance; ability to adjust flap stick-out; some like drilling only into plastic liner (not body).

Things to Consider

Most common complaint; many call them expensive/overpriced (often $600–$1000+), sometimes compounded by needing separate bracket kits/plates; some say alternatives may be “good enough” for less.
Mixed experiences: some installs are quick, others take hours—especially rear/dually, with wheel-well liners, rock rails/steps, or limited access; right-angle drill and/or removing rear wheels often recommended; alignment can be finicky.
Paper instructions sometimes vague, lacking steps, inconsistent with videos, or confusing (hardware ID, left/right orientation, templates, washer placement); requests for better labeling, templates, and model-specific videos.
Occasional reports of holes not lining up, needing to drill/elongate slots, bend/trim brackets, trim liners/trim pieces, or create homemade brackets; some rubbing with oversized tires/offset wheels; a few cases of poor fit on specific trims/years.
Multiple reviewers note drilling is still required (usually into plastic liner or flap), so ‘no-drill’ feels misleading in some kits.
Some dislike plastic clips/nut inserts pulling out/stripping, mixed metric/SAE hardware, bolt length issues, flimsy/galvanized or plastic brackets at high price, silver hardware visible (wish black), occasional missing/mismatched hardware or parts.
Some flaps/plates arrived scuffed/scratched or boxes damaged; brackets loosening in transit; a few wrong items shipped or missing pieces (spacers/washers/clips), though support often resolves quickly.
Some note low ground clearance depending on model/height; concerns about snagging in deep snow, tall grass, or off-road obstacles; some wish flaps were longer/shorter depending on use.
Plate finish can streak/stain (e.g., gunmetal), color/gloss differs from expectations, logos not level in a few cases, and some wish flaps came pre-slotted/pre-drilled for easier install.

Great mud flaps

Have had them half a year and through the winter and have held up great. Easy install. Spendy but we’ll worth the money in my opinion!

Awesone mud flaps/ easy installation

Installed all four mudflaps in less than an hour. A right angle drill attachment made this job much easier. Great hardware design. This is our second vehicle with these and we would not put anything else!
