nope, mud is the badge of honour
I wish someone made a decal kit of road spray.

I use removable mudflaps on the rear.
Not my rear but you get the idea.
(Yes, they are easily DIY)

I don’t but then again I’m probably going to be removing my rear flairs completely since I’m going to need to cut the openings bigger again
I have 6" aluminum flares. Had to use them as they are strict on tire coverage in Canada.
I made my own removable mudflaps. All you need is some square receiver tube, square tubing (just smaller OD than the receiver tube ID), flat plate (welded to receiver tube, then bolted to frame) some rubber material and then fasteners...plus 2hrs of your time.

Before i joined the forum, i have a read Jerry say 5 minutes in mud will equal 5 years of shit falling down on you when you get underneath.
2 years since my last muddy offroad trip i still get shit to fall into my eyes, never fails.
I hate mud, but even in Colorado sometimes it happens.
This is a good comparison of the mud spray with the factory Sahara rocker guard with integrated fender flare extension vs rock sliders with a tube. The direct spray definitely reaches higher without them, as whats on the door up high with the extensions is more just a mist.
I've toyed with the idea of trimming some factory extensions to fit over the front bit of the rock slider tube and see if that helps keep the mud off of me when I'm doorless. Or maybe weld some plate on the top of the tube for a foot back from the fender. Either way cheaper than half doors.
