RPI vs. Jaeger Brothers front splash guards

I'm looking into getting some front splash guards to protect my rockers/bottom of the door on my 14 GT. It seems like RPI and Jaeger Brothers are two of the known manufacturers. Does anybody have any experience with these and which would be better? I live down a mile long stretch of gravel road so the more protection would be best. I'm currently leaning toward Jaeger Brothers because they look more OEM and lol a little more stout. Can anyone confirm or deny this? The RPI just look flimsy and not very secured on the car. I'd love any help, thanks everyone!

I have the Jaeger's on all 4 corners for 6 yrs now and live down a dirt/gravel/muddy road to the ranch. Completely happy with them.

Thank you, sir. From one ranch hand to another I love the Bullitt Mustangs. Best looking color ever in my opinion.

Have the Jaeger Brothers guards on my 14.......wouldn't buy anything from RPI..
You might want to look into Roush side & rear splitters, the front guards will only protect so much.

I also put 3M mask on the rockers when they did the front.

Roush side splitters are the next thing on order, I had already planned for them just needed the cash to free up.

I thought about 3M but I didn't know if they would just get torn up and look terrible.

I have the RPI's, they are made of extremely thin/inexpensive (read: CHEAP) ABS plastic sheet. Will flap at anything above street speeds unless modified, which is what I had to do. They have held up, but I'd look elsewhere of I had to do it again.

After seeing the design that's what I was afraid of. I went with the Jaegers they look great though.
