Here are the different plate finishines

At a glance

Customer sentiment is overwhelmingly positive: buyers repeatedly praise Gatorback/SharpTruck mud flaps as premium, heavy‑duty, great-looking, vehicle-specific products that provide excellent protection, with standout customer service and fast shipping. The main negatives are high price, occasionally challenging/long installations (especially rears/dually), and periodic hardware/instructions/packaging issues or minor fitment quirks on certain trims/oversized tires.

What Customers Liked

  • Thick/heavy rubber, substantial weight, rugged/OTR-grade feel; holds up for years (5–10+ years reported), flexible in cold/snow, doesn’t “sail” at highway speed; strong brackets add stability.
  • Look “sharp,” “classy,” and OEM-like; logo/plate options (Ford/Chevy/Ram/AT4X/Z71/flags, etc.) get many compliments and add ‘pop’.
  • Many report perfect fit/‘like a glove,’ good tire coverage, options for offsets/oversized tires (e.g., offset versions preventing rubbing), adjustable positioning via slotted holes.
  • Significantly reduces mud/road salt/slush on running boards/steps and sides; helps prevent rock chips and protects trailers/RVs/boats; improves cleanliness on gravel/dirt roads and in winter conditions.
  • Often installs using factory holes and avoids drilling into metal body; videos and written instructions frequently cited as helpful; many install without removing wheels (fronts especially).
  • Consistently praised for responsive support, warranty replacements for tears/rips, quick resolution of shipping damage/wrong parts/missing items, and proactive communication/updates.
  • Fast delivery (often 2–5 days), accurate orders/fitment tools, good packaging noted by many; easy ordering and exchanges/returns.
  • Removable lower section on some models appreciated for added clearance during off-roading, then quick reinstall.

Things to Consider

  • Frequently described as expensive/‘hard pill to swallow’ (some citing $600–$1000+), though many still say it’s worth it.
  • Rears and dually setups often challenging/time-consuming; some recommend removing rear wheels, using a right-angle drill, clamps, or a helper; alignment can take time.
  • Some find written directions vague/confusing; hardware not clearly labeled (washers/spacers), left/right not distinguished, videos not always model-specific; “no-drill” marketing criticized when drilling in liners/plastic is still required.
  • Occasional missing screws/washers/clips/parts; mixed metric/SAE hardware complaints; plastic fasteners/clips stripping or pulling out; desire for stainless/black hardware and better washer/spacer labeling.
  • Some reports of rubbing with oversized tires/turning lock; minor misalignment of holes/templates; driver/passenger side fit differences; not perfect fit for some newer model years or with wheel-well liners/fender flares/steps.
  • Several note rear support brackets feel ‘necessary’ but are not always included; frustration at needing to add brackets separately or not being told upfront.
  • A few cases of brackets coming loose in transit causing scratches; damaged outer boxes; occasional wrong color/plate shipped.
  • Silver fasteners/washer heads stand out; some plates/finishes streak or rust (rare report of rust forming on logo); desire for thicker metal in certain kits.
  • Some note flaps hang low for off-road use; risk of tearing in deep snow, tall grass, or trail obstacles (though removability helps on some models).

Exceptional look

The Gatorback Z71 mud flaps are confirmed to fit my Chevy truck. Easy to install, very durable and sturdy.  Giving an exceptional look to my truck. Only thing of concern is the pricing, wishing they were more reasonably priced.  However; they are great looking and good quality.

Definitely what I was looking for. The brackets weren't in the box originally, but Sharp Truck made it right without any hassle. The top clips install a little funny, but I didn't have to drill any holes. I would absolutely recommend these flaps and this company for truck enthusiasts looking for quality parts.

why do u advertize the Z71 mud flaps for 157.00 dollars when i go to by it shows 202.00dollars
