Default Need a recommendation for mud flaps

I do a little bit of off roading and I’m having trouble finding flexible mud flaps that fit a 2020 XLT 4x4. I don’t want a hard plastic mold, but rather a flexible rubber that has a little give to it.

I think the hard plastic ones would get destroyed on the rocky trails I frequent. Anyone have any recommendations?

Gatorbacks are what I have. A little expensive but they are well made, flexible, and the mounting brackets are Ford approved for the F150.

Gatorback. A little pricey but very durable and they look great too!

Those look great. Do you have to buy the mounting brackets?

No, they came included with the mudflaps. I paid $395 out the door for front and rear.

This is always the killer on them, but they do seem nice - if you need the flex and fit, you pay through the nose for them

There was definitely some sticker shock, but they just look so good. I love the way they look on my truck.

Don't bloody say that and not post pictures

Any specifics you got? it's always something i can aspire to in the future, though i think they're all drill to fit? i got the no-drill as i didn't want to drill holes in mine.

They came with no-drill brackets to install. Super easy to put on as well. I went with the gun metal ones as I'm working on blacking out my truck and using the grayed out FX4 sticker. This is the only picture I have at the moment.
