How can I stop this mud spray?

Hey there guys, on the truck in my sig everytime I hit some mud it splashes so it looks like I was backin out half the time. Does anyone know what can cause this? I want it to stop doin this, I never once had to use reverse yet this is what it looks like - I hit mud/water at 2-20mph


Does anyone know how I stop the mud from makin it look like I can travel a gravel road without usin reverse? Thanks guys, this just bugs me, and so does everyone else who has a 4x4 . . .

That's the only think I can think of, I don't mind getting the doors and everything muddy at all, in fact I kinda like it but I really hate the look of it shooting from the front of the back tire, makes it look bad upon 2WD. The only thing I can think of is maybe a little mud-flap or somethin on the other side of fender, but that looks stupid, any ideas?

basically fender flares as he said. But then they may be dorky without lift? There's good stock fender flares to buy.

Of course if you hit the pedals faster/more often then it'll start lookin all muddy and good.

I probably could have figured that one out with a calculator, I think when I lift it I'm either gonna get the flares or just leave it.

don't worry about it. you went in it didn't you. and you came out with no help i would guess. and so what if you use reverse just means you had to much fun the first time and want to go again lol.
