I made my own mudflaps. I've got no bed and got a fix it ticket for no flaps.

I went down to the hardware store, 8"x 24" piece of sheet steel. Then I bought a 6' x 1" piece of square iron. Cut the sheet metal in half.

Cut the length of iron to be equal distance from rim to rim. Drilled 2 holes on each end all the way through the iron, drilled 2 holes in the top of each piece of sheet metal. Bolted the sheet metal pieces to the iron. Painted it all gloss black, and used tie wire to secure it to the frame.

Not a bad job, looks good and passed the ticket. I don't think you'd need the length of iron though. Just giving you an idea.
