Just installed these on my ‘23 Sierra. Don’t cut too much liner off, maybe 1-1 1/2” above the frame and I put vertical cuts where the bracket was to help the new “mud flap” go in a little easier. I also had to drill a hole into the body first before I put in the self tapping screw. Highly recommend taking the tires off if you can, I did not. Pain in the ass but it’s still doable.

Glad to see Rough Country made these at an affordable price. I have already cut to fit 35's on a 4" lift so excited to see if these cover up the beautiful cuts 🤣 I had to make on my '21 Sierra

Received mine today, also had 4 pieces missing the tape. I applied the same kind of tape to 2 of the 4 pieces missing tape. They seem to fit nicer or to be easier lined up without the tape. Here's the thing with the front 2 pieces, the bracket that is removed and left off for the installation is a support bracket for the body. And you also have to either cut more of the wheel well liner out than what is shown in the video. Overall it looks nice! A few of the pieces didnt line up as good as i hoped. Im picky. I wish I wouldnt have applied tape to the pieces missing it, and I cut too much wheel liner off on one side. Once you get the metal bracket off and the wheel liner trimmed up to the frame along the bottom you'll still need to trim it up just a little more and I found it it helped to run 2 vertical cuts in the wheel liner where the new trim piece pushes against it. I struggled to line it up at first but got the drivers side perfect. Ill be putting the self tapping screws into the frame as they wont last in the wheel well liner.

Well, if rough country had half a brain, they would’ve just used the factory body clips, but they went with the cheaper option double sided tape high-quality🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

@@thevolcom7 they line up ok….slight crooked but you only notice when you look up close. Had to cut off more liner and metal then the instructions say. It still looks better than the cheesy mud flaps that came with the truck LOL! I do plan to upgrade rims and tires later so fingers crossed.

@tylerm6207 I don't plan on going any bigger with tires but do want a lift. It's the more cutting that was needed and removing that bracket that makes me cringe, I should've went with gator since I am not planning on upgrading wheels/tires. Who knows. Maybe some day haha got an excuse now

Was wondering the same thing. I just ordered these and I'm nervous about needing to cut 2 securement points off the front then only having 2 on the delete piece. I'm doing this to avoid snow and mud pack from ripping off the stock flaps, a few are already broke and missing tabs and t15 screws from going up simple trails that were just muddy so it's time for the delete

@XxMissingDataxX you do have to cut, and quite a bit! Not to mention better keep the side steps unless you want rock chips. You'll still get some chips around the steps. There's a kit for $120 more. Gator. And unless your trying to fit fat tires with a lift you don't need this kit. The gator kit is worth the extra money if your just trying to delete the mud flaps for the appearance

RC should be ashamed of themselves for the design of the front of this kit and the QC out the door. Four of the six pieces were missing the double sided tape and the instructions are terrible. Also the front doesn’t fit at all like it supposed to with the wheel well liner in place. It can be made to work, but it’s a fight.
