Rally armor mudflaps

Does anyone have the basic rally armor mudflaps? How long do they last before they deform and get flimsy? Trying to debate between classics or basics. I dnt ike the UR becuz theyr shiny. I do plan on having trips to tahoe as well

I've some basic ones on now, and may take them off or at least trim them soon. I'm dropped only about 1", but during nominal driving the flaps scrape the ground. Even worse when I have passengers. YMMV, esp. on stock/non lowered suspension.

They've been on about 2-3 weeks, still in one piece, but some scratches are forming.

There is always the Ikea method if they start wearing out.

So long as they aren't scraping left and right (the last guy to own my car had flaps and the car another inch lower - I can hardly imagine), I think they should hold, but see if anyone else here has accounts otherwise.

UR are only shiny for a week or two or when you clean them. After a while they just look flat like the rest of them. I had the classics and scraped them on driveways at stock ride height. You still scrape the URs but they flex so they don't get so beat up and you don't hear it.
