Dodge mud flaps great for collecting mud

[Lhotka]

Why would Dodge design a mud flap with a textered inner surface that collects and holds mud? I purchased the flexible ones thinking they might clean and shed mud better. The nippled surface even resists cleaning with a high pressure hose.

They are made to keep water spray down and should be called water flaps not mud flaps. #ad

They are called anti-spray, they work great for that... . however your right about them grabbing mud and holding on.

Lhotka,

Got photos of your flaps so we can see what you are referring to (flexible ones?)?

Thanks,

David
