Preparing for Installation
The Mud Flap Kit is designed to provide added protection against rocks and small road debris that can accelerate elemental wear and tear on your vehicle’s body and paint. If you drive on roads where heavy salt, sand, or gravel are commonly used to improve winter road conditions, installing this kit is the recommended way to protect your vehicle.
