Anyone have any?
I saw one on here "white" with matching white flaps, but it was a rear shot. I'd like to see pictures because after I get this thing fully detailed, i'm going to add some flaps! I just don't want to have a cheap look.
I've also heard 3M clear film may be an answer to this issue.

The 3M clear film should be placed on the truck where the flaps are going to be attached so that the constant vibration or movement and wear and tear does not damage the paint. I actually have two mismatched sets on - the rear are from Chevy and the fronts from from Husky which I think are a cleaner look. I have the rear matching ones from Husky but I just have not gotten around to swapping them out yet. I know a lot of people dislike them but I am a stickler for keeping my truck clean and white and I always got the splatter from the tire shine products. This is the only way that I can keep the splash off. Plus it protects the panels from rock chips and stuff. Hope this helps.

Yea,
My soul purpose would be to prevent rock chips.
I currently have them on my lower door panel and front which aren't noticible unless the vehicle belongs to you (ya'know what I mean). With my setup, I presonally don't know if I wil do the mud flaps now, BUT, I have been reading that 3M's protective coating works VERY well and you don't even notice it's there. I'll post the best site when I find it again if anyone else might be interested in this. If you have aftermarket rims/tires, you WILL get excess mud/dirt/chips without some type of protection.

These are the Weathertech mudguards. Definetely a difference in the rock chips,mud etc... on the panels.

Mud flaps are usually the first thing I pull off when I get a new truck. The clear 3M body guards are a good way to go if you want to keep the ride looking clean
