I tried to avoid mudflaps because they look like arse, but I couldn't. I had to give in and run them on front. I didn't hang them low enough to be real effective because I hate that look, so with the combo of the front running board holes plugged they work pretty good.

^^^^ This.

Plus mud flaps in the rear cut down on the Raptor wake when it rains, and I like having the truck throw a sizable wake, it cuts down on non-local tailgaters.

I’m going to implement this mod sometime this season.

I agree with you, I'm not a fan of the look on a raptor either, but they sure do work well to keep crap from slinging up on the doors.

Some MudFlaps are plain and I don't like how they look which is why I went with PDP MudFlaps which have some definition to them and have Raptor on them in the color that matches my truck.

I like the way they look and more importantly their functionality.
