Construction & Design

These mud skins are engineered with durability and style in mind. The core is constructed from heavy-duty quarter-inch rubber, providing excellent flexibility and impact resistance to absorb debris strikes and prevent damage to your truck’s fenders. The brushed stainless steel hex shield overlays the rubber base, offering a corrosion-resistant barrier that maintains its finish even under harsh environmental conditions.

The hex pattern not only adds a unique visual element but also reinforces the shield’s structural integrity. Mounting is secured with 18 gauge stainless steel hardware, ensuring a rust-free, sturdy attachment that withstands vibration and road stress. This combination of materials results in a mud flap that is both functional and visually appealing.
