Looking at getting mud guards for the Z71. I've seen pics of the WeatherTech ones installed and they look really square. I'm thinking the Husky ones are more round at the bottom based off of pics on their website. Does anyone have pics of the Husky ones installed?
No GM Accessory mud guards? When I was looking for mine, I found one brand too short and another too long and the GM were just right...

I looked at GM when I bought mine, I think when I was building it on the GM site, it only showed flaps with bow ties. I went with weathertech. The install was easy and they are on solid. Like them, only down side was they are all produced for automatic steps. My z71 has fixed steps but I really never notice the indent on the front flap. They are on solid as they day they were installed (which was solid).

Not apt yet, but on the 15+ Tahoes/Yukons/Suburbans Red Hound makes some very nice flaps. I am impressed with the fit and quality. Hopefully they will add the 21+ soon.

You just bought the wrong ones, they are all not like this.

In 2019 they did not have the version for fixed steps yet. Went to the factory store in Illinois because I couldn't believe they didn't exist. Glad to see thy fixed the hole in their lineup.

Makes sense. This is the 2021+ forum so I just figured that is what we are discussing.

i'm sure it's going to boil down to price on the mud flaps both brands are good in that department, as far as having to drill or not it's plastic you are drilling and literally takes less than a second. no big deal, my opinion is you want the extra support anyway.

With the Weathertech you use the holes that are already there. Why drill when you can use whats already there?
