I will say I’ve had RB on a few different vehicles and I can’t say I’ve had a problem with any of them. I am indifferent as well, I’m a helicopter commander of all links and ends so I feel That I’m fairly fussy on what i will except

I’ve always been real happy with the Husky mud flaps. A few of my buddies that own/work in body shops say they are definitely needed in the front if you have running boards and live where it snows. They say the snow/salt accumulates and destroys the running boards eventually. I contacted Husky today. They related that flaps for the 2021 Raptor should be available in 4-6 weeks. I don’t think I’m gonna get for the rear. I like showing the tire off. Plus it has the plastic trim piece on the lower rear fender to protect the truck. Screw those behind me….lol.

yeah the biggest problem with the raptors is the accumilation of snow and ice from the from tires building up on the running board near the front door seam.

Does anyone feel odd only running Fronts? Just curious. I never really thought about it....
There a few threads roaming around the Gen 2's but from what i've seen they look great. I'd still want to be able to sling mud out the back

I’ve had Gatorback mudflats on my other trucks over the years and always very happy with the quality/fit/finish. Expensive but have always lasted.

Their website didn’t have anything listed for the gen 3, so I sent an email inquiry and got the following reply

“Good morning, as a matter of fact Gatorback was able to get a 2021 Raptor yesterday and get some flaps on it. It looks like they should be pretty close to finished with the test fitting.Hopefully they will have something ready to order in the next few weeks. As soon as we get part numbers and pricing I will get them loaded up on the site.”

He also included two pictures. 515A7EFF-8E7C-4162-BADC-65FE5E5C4E5B.jpeg9A2AC0EF-E274-483B-85B7-9D8E5730AA92.jpeg

Looks terrible.
It's obvious it's a Raptor. Why say it on the mud flap. It doesn't seam to flow or look right.
I’m not sold on the look…with raptors they are doing their offset mounting, which if you look close you can notice the bump out.

The “raptor” lettering can typically be changed out for any of their other designs. If I do go this direction I would probably lean towards the black on black Ford oval.

As the op stated not many options.
