[@thatguyerk5426]

Just wanted to say thanks for the video. I did mine based off your idea and its working fine for me so far. Dont have to worry about scraping when i go over low obstacles like curbs now

[@bobbygfl]

Great to hear! Thanks! I think they look cool also

[@bobbygfl]

[@billveder1071]

I new the second I looked at the stock mud flaps something had to be done, nice job! Question: What is jet black, a polish? I can't seem to find it

[@bobbygfl]

Thanks! It’s actually called Color magic. Here is a link to the product at AutoZone www.autozone.com/wash-cleaners-and-exterior-care-products/polish/turtle-wax-color-magic-jet-black-polish-16oz/267749_0_0

[@kendrapatterson170]

Love this idea. Wanted to find out about your rear bumper. Did you buy a plastic bumper caps to cover your chrome? If so, did it come painted to match your Tacoma?

[@bobbygfl]

That bumper is entirely stock the painted pieces came with it. Thanks for the comment!

[@troy3456789]

I am wanting longer lower hanging, heavy duty, flexible mud flaps. *What were those you had before you destroyed them?*

[@bobbygfl]

The factory ones. The only longer ones that I know of are the weather tech ones maybe check them out that could be what you’re looking for.

[@wheelsturn]

Great job! I may have to do this.

[@bobbygfl]

Thanks!

In your videos, we can always learn interesting notions and tips on how to do the aesthetic and mechanical interventions of cars. In addition I noticed that besides this, you usually work almost always barefoot. For me it is an excellent thing: I also love being barefoot, as much as I can. One question: do you probably drive your cars barefoot, including your Porsche? Personally I love driving barefoot, mainly for an absolute tactile sensation, with the car, through the total feeling of the pedals.

[@bobbygfl]

Crosley Start I really don’t wear shoes around the house ever. And when I do it’s flip flops!! Thanks for the comment. I do drive barefoot from time to time. Especially when just running to get gas. Standing at the 911 filling up, barefoot, cut off sweatpants and a stained tee with holes in it. I probably get a few looks. Lol

[@ilfred6857]

@@bobbygfl You do exactly like me: even around the house, I am always barefoot all year. Or alternatively, I also wear flip flops. I can say that being barefoot is the thing I like best: it gives me a great feeling of freedom. And especially for driving, I love doing it barefoot. I presume that driving this Porsche (manual of course), driving barefoot is a way to be truly in total feeling, especially with the clutch pedal, which tends to be very perpendicular to the floor of the driving position. Honestly, I didn't notice if you watch barefoot in your videos, but I assumed it.

[@mikegreene9215]

Sharp truck, what size are your tires? Did you do a lift? If so how much in front and back?

[@bobbygfl]

Hi. Thanks. Here’s the link on the lift: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oauqfn5tfLyWgqM

[@ThepDenNgoaiBien]

Toyota engineers will cry if they see your trim??? Is that stop any mud to the truck?? factory look ugly but will do the job...your trim look BETTER for sure but...for Decoration....Wait for Toyota engineers see your trim then they will design or recall that later! What do you think?

[@bobbygfl]

Lol. Maybe. It does look way better if they steal my design I don’t care. And as far as rock chips- zero. I don’t really take it off Road but it made no difference in normal driving

[@robson-jt2kg]

Why didnt you just put them back to back and trace a line ??? (when cutting the second side)

[@bobbygfl]

They do not lay nicely together. I suppose I could’ve done that just for one point of contact and worked from there.

[@johnh9507]

I like it, could have left them slightly longer

[@bobbygfl]

Agreed. If I did it again I’d leave the rears a bit longer. I do like the fronts though. Thanks for the comment!

[@bobbygfl]

@@johnh9507 it’s a prerunner. Not a 4x4.

[@bobbygfl]

@@johnh9507 it’s very easy.

[@johnh9507]

@@bobbygfl are the front and rear interchangeable ? if so, i may purchase the rear pre-runners they are about 3 inches shorter than my front ones and not say 4x4 on them

[@bobbygfl]

@@johnh9507 no. The hole pattern is different.

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

Anyone know how I can get clean cuts if I don't have a band saw ? Thanks

[@bobbygfl]

ram dat The saw is less of a necessity than a good sander or even a block of wood wrapped with sandpaper. You could use a handsaw fine tooth like a hacksaw blade but your final shaping can easily be done by sanding. If you finish up with 600 grit it’ll look like a factory finish.

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

@@bobbygfl handsaw too much work lol. Sawzall it is !!! Thanks 👍👍👍👍

[@davidstiles6260]

Do the fronts actually function? I took mine off after a lift and the side of my truck is always caked with mud. Mod looks great, but I need them to work.

[@bobbygfl]

@@davidstiles6260 The fronts function from the perspective of keeping dirt off the door however if you were in full on mud I would assume it would sling mud further down the side of the truck. As far as every day driving zero issues not a single rock or stone chip literally no problem.

[@FATFROGROBLOX]

Are this oem mud flaps? My tacoma didn't come with any

[@bobbygfl]

Yes these are oem. Came stock on prerunners

[@FATFROGROBLOX]

@@bobbygfl awesome thank you , am going to order some to do the same as you 🤜🤛

[@bobbygfl]

@@FATFROGROBLOX nice! Thank you

[@omerbenian]

function ?

[@bobbygfl]

As in do the function. Yes. No chips. Been on for over a year now.

[@jameswong7061]

@@bobbygfl does it "block the mud" especially during raining? i'm using 285 tyres, mudguard taken off, been hell after raining day, even splash to my side window......

[@tr4ilblazin]

Should just take it off lol it’s not even doing the job any more

[@bobbygfl]

I thought it looked weird without them
