Yes stock emblem just re painted in your color selection. But the quality has went down a little from what I have read.

Mine wasn't perfect. The paint still felt tacky and was stuck to the saran wrap in a couple of places. There was also some runs from one color in to another on certain areas. I cleaned it up a little so it doesn't bother me anymore.

Mid Flaps for a SCREW!

Wanted to put mid flaps on my 2011 SCREW.......after realizing that TheJoker's truck is a SCAB and the mounting points that were he used don't line up on a SCREW, I crawled under my truck to see if there was another way to mounts the Mid Flaps.

First thing I ordered TWO truck mud flaps, $33.47 total. http://www.ryderfleetproducts.com/j...ng-24"x24"x3-8"-p-jkc-242438gk

Cheapest I found and they didn't bend you over on the shipping.

Step 1.
Purchase a 3' piece of 1/8" x 1 1/4" stock. Cut two pieces 12 1/2" long.
Drill two 5/16" holes 1/2" in from the ends. Bend one end 2 1/2" from the end at a 90 on each piece.

Step 2.
Take one of the mud flaps and cut it 15" wide X 16 1/2" tall. Make sure that the proper side is facing the rear.
Cut a 3 1/2" wide X 3" tall notch out of the top inboard corner, this is to allow the flap to fit around the frame for better Shock protection.
Round the top outboard corner to fit to the running board mount, also round the bottom corner to match.
Repeat for the other side.

Step 3.
Use an old 8M U-nut from an old bumper mount or exhaust hanger, etc.....I know you have plenty of them laying around, and put into the square hole in the frame to aline with the round hole opposite the rearward bracket on the running board.

Step 4.
Use a 8M screw to snug up the bracket tight enough to hold the mud flap in place between the bracket and the running board mount. Drill a 5/16" hole through the bracket and the mud flap into the running board mount.
Level the mud flap, I ran mine 3" off of the ground, and drill the inboard hole and tighten things up, I suggest using a large washer on the inner mud flap mount.

Thanks to TheJoker for the idea.

The install was straight foreword and looks clean.......will up date after I put some miles on the trial.

Glad I threw on new Bosch Icon (22A, 22B) wiper blades. Had a major storm hit the west coast of O'Ahu and it was HEAVY rain. I guess the next thing is to get some aux lights.

Haven't done it yet but just arrived today and now have to figure when to get all installed. Not delivered to house, don't even want a Jimbo moment.
