I usually get mud flaps on all my cars but I'm having a hard time finding any for this car. The only ones I can find are these. They look like they would fall off and they're $150.

Also, I forget to ask the dealer when I bought the car if they had some. I usually do this but it was a crazy day and all so I don't even know if they have any. I looked on the Ford site and it don't look they do.

Any links or pics to mud flaps you guys/gals use would be great and thanks.

I have them on my ride,looks factory and saves your ride from rocks,I like them

I have the Jaeger Brothers splash guards. They have been on since last summer. I like them since they are easy on/easy off for washing and shows. I take them off every time I wash the car. Five minutes. Expensive, yes...but cheaper then a paint job. Not one rock chip on the sides in 17,000+ miles. The best part, the rear ones fit like a glove. Here is link to check them out.

I found the Cal Pony items listed on a different forum. I haven't tried them but they look to be the decent items since they use the stock holes new fasteners and also double sided tape.

Ford needs to make something aggressive like the one on the GT350 for the GT.

I have those and you barely notice they are there and they do keep the sides of the car cleaner and keep that road grit from giving the side of the car road rash.

These look like they use a push in fastener front and rear, the ZL1 rears (from what I can tell from their site), use only 3M on the rear.

:cheers:

I have both front and rear. I have only the fronts installed so far , as it was a very easy install. The rears come with plastic/Teflon blocks that are 3Med into the rear wheel wells. Then your dry fit the flaps and mark the blocks thru the pre drilled holes in the flaps. There are holes in the bottom of the flaps that use the factory push pins. So basically the rears use the push pins and some provided screws for the blocks/spacers.

Here is a pic of the ZL1 rears. Four screws and stickon blocks to mount the side of the flap. And a hole on the bottom for the factory push clip.

I'm very strongly considering these since I put on 20x10/20x11 wheels... I love that it fills up the wheel well but I'm not looking forward to the aftermath of it lol

All of the mudflaps are injection molded. Why can't the rear flaps have molded on extensions rather than plastic blocks that have to be fitted between the flaps and the rear face of the wheel well? I would have assumed that, by now, someone would have 3D printed out a pair of molded flaps that actually fit on and into the rear wheel wells.

I used the flat plastic universal pieces on the FR, looks surprisingly well...there's no need to spend more than $13

I have zl1 front and rear. The rears are easier to install than I thought they'd be.

I bought a set before I got the car, put them in a "safe stop" and just found them on Friday. I guess I need to install them.

I have these on my car and they work great. The only issue I have came across is the car wash will take the back ones off.

OP here. Thanks for all the replys. Couple thoughts here. The Jagger Brothers look just like the ones from American Muscle but a few bucks less. wonder if there the same thing ?

The Zl1 look kinda complicated to install with the blocks and all . I just don't really get how they go on.

These look cool but how hard is it to remove and re install the factory push pins. Do you need a special tool and what happens if you break one. Are they sold at your local auto zone ?

push pins are really hard to break, and even if they do, buy a pack of like 100 for $5.
