I am not sure if i want them or not but i was just wanting to see what they look like and i might put them on. It is not something i want to do really bad. Just kind of thinking about it.

Hit up my photobucket link...tons of pictures.
They are Mopar's flaps, molded to the body and flares.

I color matched the Mopar Flaps on mine, and they aid in keeping the Stone chips to a minimum along the lower body area.........
It gets a little expensive to have to Refinish the lower body every time it gets tore up from Road Work here in the SW PA area every Summer!

I don't know what they are, probably Canadian tire specials. They look decent for mudflaps, but they don't stop a whole lot of rocks, but some.

NICE AND CLEAN!!! Keep it that way on the tailgate, IMO it looks so much cleaner. Also just n case you decide to add a painted-to-match tonnoue(sp?) cover. :P Thats how I have mine.

I drilled and just screwed them in. Doesn't take much to keep them in place but you don't want them flying off on the highway or somethin. I'm not sure how EXACTLY you are supposed to do it, though.

Flaps should come with the screws you need. The biggest part of mud flaps is aligning them to be perfect. I suggest two people for the job.
1 person hold the flap and adjusts while you look at them, then once you're satisfied, screw 'em in. (Oh, and it helps if you take your wheels and tires off)
You can go to the dealer (where i purchased mine) and they have flaps made for flares, or flaps made for a truck without flares.

They did come with screws but only 2 for each flap. I used some other ones I had as reinforcements.
2 people is definitely a good idea when doing this. Like you said...one person holds and one looks at them from behind the vehicle, etc. Mine were said to be made for flares but they seem as though they could still be a little bigger...
Another thing...when your drilling, be careful not to drill into the metal body and only the flare. At least, I wanted to be careful of that. I figure if you strip some of the paint off and drill into the metal...there's a good chance for rust since there's so much spray down in that area.

dakotapwr is right - use a second person when putting them on - if you don't they usually end up crooked and look like crap - mine are mopar flaps - they are screwed in (small pilot hole, then screw 'em on)
