I have the GM splash guards, they help keep mud off the the front driver and passenger doors but the rear doors and fenders will still get covered. Eventually I'll Line-X my fenders

The flares and flaps will help some. They direct the spray lower and farther back but still the rear fender catches a lot. If you are severe rock crawling depending on the tires you have in the 285 size and up the tires will occasionally rub. An artful sculpting of the lower lip will solve this.

What is the point of adding 1.5" when my wheels/tires stick out 3"? Waste of money in my book if you have aftermarket wheels. Thought about making some custom tube fenders similar to what is offered for Jeeps. The aftermarket for the H3 has always been limited, but now that the Brand is gone I would guess you better be able to fabricate your own stuff if you want something.
