HUSky’s molded mud flaps are nothing like the floor mats. The flaps are a hard thermoplastic that does not bend. I don’t think you would want a flap that is as rubbery as a floor mat, or a floor mat that is as stiff as a mud flap.

Now their traditional “universal” kind might be a little more flexible. All 3 brands’ molded models are short on coverage compared to traditional rectangular long mud flaps (with a stainless weight at the bottom), like the Gatorbacks that Ford sells. Ford’s OEM molded one’s are the shortest.

The WT asks that you specify with or without too but I don't think they make one for that molding...that's why Midwest wanted pics and called WT they wanted to make sure the mudflaps were the right ones....I bought the truck used and that's how it was...I never really noticed it was different till I went to put the mudflaps on

I feel the same way!

I see too many vehicles where they have nice looking wheels and Plasti-Dip them!
