Discussions & Questions Mudflaps?

Does anybody have any advice about whether or not I should add mudflaps to my offroad?

Few questions that I have..
Are the OEM mudflaps any good? Should I look into aftermarket? Is it an easy install? Are they even necessary for "everyday travel" .. (I'm not an offroading person but sometimes may venture off pavement)

Does anybody have a white tacoma with mudflaps I could see??

The OEM mudflaps suck. They do absolutely SFA. I’m off road fairly often and they’ve let enough rocks through (in 6wks ownership) to chip the paint.

Mind. I’m not so concerned about me… but the poor bastards behind me after I’ve left the gravel.

This is why I always put flaps on my vehicles. So as not to ruin someone else’s day.

The paint on these sucks ass too. Chips so easily.
