I'm interested in finding out which flaps you end up choosing, as I too am
planning to have splash guards put on my 4x4 SLT (darn AT tires keep
throwing dirt/snow etc. into the space between the bottom of the door and
the rocker panel, and the car wash doesn't get it clean, I have to clean it
out with a sponge).. I had planned on getting the guards when I was in for
my 6000 mile service which is coming up in the next couple weeks.

I was thinking of putting on fog lights as well, (wish I had ordered 'em
when I ordered the truck!) but wasn't sure if I would have to order a new
front airdam with cutouts for the fog lights or not. What does the kit
include?? It's separate from the lights and the brackets, so what does that
leave?? Wiring, and a switch for the dash?? Somebody else had posted that
the location of the factory fog light switch left something to be desired.
Let us know what you decide and how you make out...
Ciao!
