maybe you can't tell from the photo, but that's some pretty thick mud.

Why not? It seems to be working fine. You have the mud and the flaps.

That's some pretty good coverage... But how thick is it?



lol... How often do you wash your car? I got a free wash with a fill-up last year, but I think I'll have it washed again this week, so I don't bring the dirtiest car to the meet in montgomery.

once a month or as needed (if we get some ice and they salt the roads i clean it the next day). i usually keep it like that, but i still like to play in the mud every now and then.




speaking of mud... i saw my first ever titan on the road today. OMG that thing was beautiful. hands down better looking than the f150. time for a test drive soon.

Mudflaps may be useful, but there is no way I would put those suckers on my car. Absolutely ugly.

EvilRoadsVictim, Ive seen a couple titans. The only thing I would take over it would be a Chevy 1500. The titan though is very nice.

if you paint them, they are a GREAT substitute for those that dont have a kit. They make car look a little lower and they just enhance the look of the car. I bought mine for looks, not for what its used for.

Right on, i just painted mine body color this weekend. Looks WAAAAY better than the stock black color. One of the best mods i ever did exterior wise. I LOVE the look. Its definately my substitution for a body kit seeing how im not getting rims and rims/no body kit looks
