These are very rigid, molded plastic, and not like mud 'flaps' I've had in the past. They're very stylish and look great on my rig. That being said installing them took me a while to sort out. My Dodge fell into the category of having 'large rock guards' at the base of the wheel well that the instructions said to remove. Removing them exposed lines where the paint had been worn off, and the new mud guards didn't cover those lines. The 'precut' plastic protectors weren't precut, and even after I trimmed and tried one it didn't really help the situation.I'd much rather Husky had created a new design that fit over the large rock guards rather than just tell us to remove them... I understand why they didn't, but it would make for a better fit.Additionally the molding at the bottom of these creates a sort of 'funnel' that just looked like trouble to me. It's done to avoid a 'bump' at the bottom of the wheel well but it looks like a great way to get water and ice into the body panels... just didn't feel right.In the end, as you can see from the photos, I drilled a few new holes and just added the Husky guards on top of the existing stock large rock guards. The front took a little bending but the back fit like a glove. Added one extra screw to the inside of the rear and some black RTV between them and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
