Skinny Mudflaps = Rock Chips on Bed & Fender Flares

Thanks for the heads up. Sounds like I should just get the PPF done as well then.

I had mine done with just a couple hundred miles on it, and there were already two fender chips and one on the body color part of the front bumper.

That is a shame to hear given the other protections you have put in place. Is this just on normal roads or from offroading or gravel?

Normal roads unfortunately. I have not had the time to do much off roading and I almost never drive on gravel since I moved to Virginia. The roads are a lot cleaner here than in Ohio where I lived for years, but the chips are still a problem with aggressive tires no matter what.

I put on some 11mm PPF - Suntek Ultra Defense - works amazingly well so far - just in that one spot

I plan on getting this installed on the truck I was quoted $3500 for the entire truck

Jump on that one - seriously less than what I paid!

Wow. The whole truck? That’s usually a 7K job. Just make sure it’s a good installer. If it is, jump on that.
