Recomended fender flares

[buzzleo]

What's the consensus on which fender flares are "best"? Ease of installation, quality, durability. I know it depends on which ones catch your eye, just looking for some opinions!
TIA

Seeing the date of this post, you may have already purchased. If so, disregard.

I am putting the Husky OE Flares on mine. My wife didn't want "shoulder pads" as she put it, but we wanted the black accent against the ruby red, and we wanted something for when we get her more aggressive tires (someday; she won't skip out on 40,000 miles of tire just because they look boring). It's minimal, but she is not an aggressive off roader. More for looks.

Those ones look good! If I eventually get more offset wheels, those look like the ones I'd get. Almost looks OEM.

I did one and then aggravated my sciatica so I had to stop. Going to work on the others tonight.

I’ll post the entire side when I’m finished.

Looks good! Would love to know how far it sticks out, looks about an inch or so?

Hey guys...... relatively new here. Recently I picked up a 2026 XLT FX4 in Avalanche. I know, it's not a Raptor but hey, for my needs it's more than fine. The truck purchased has no fender flares, simply the fender bodywork.

What I'm actually posting about is I'm looking to pop on a set of OEM style fender flares and the Husky ones look to be the ticket. Luckily I don't have the Tech Pkg so no issues with sensors. I looked into the Rough Country ones but they seem too big. I am getting the feeling the choices are not great.

Basically two questions. First, I've read some comments that folks have had trouble remounting the front side fender lights into the Husky flares, with the opening for the assembly not being properly sized. The problem I've read specifically mentions the front right flare. Is this something others have had problems with? Or any other fitment hiccups?

The second question relates to whether the Ford OEM molded mud flaps which are on the truck can be affixed over the installed Husky flares (not between flare and bodywork) so I can run with both?

Any insights would be awesome and much appreciated. Here's a couple of shots of the new guy.

Thanks
