Here is what I did with mine....Have the chrome weights on the bottem and added the chrome "anti sails" to keep them stiff. Mine are poly flaps, but the anti sails will work on the rubber.
I only put the flaps together like that for appearance, as I did not like the flaps that were on the truck. Just did it to dress it up.

Yes...I had to trim the flaps.
Before I started slicing them up. I mounted the weights on the bottom first. Then layed the anti-sails on the flaps, so the flags were centered. Then layed the top chrome trim and conspicuous reflectors on the top of the anti sails. Then cut the TOP of the flap. This will remove the flaps bolts holes. Just "poke" new ones.
If you trim from the bottom of the flap the imprinted design will not be centered in the anti-sails.
