I work at a body shop so I have a endless supply of stuff but I used nylon nuts like these so they do not rust
Amazon.com: OAUTOO 20PCS Fender Liner Splash Shield Nylon U-Nut for 90179-05060 Toyota & Lexus,Screw Size #10, : Automotive
and screws like this, you need to get the right length which is the tricky part the rear lower one was a little longer than expected, I tried to reuse the screw I took out of the bottom hole in the rear but is just a little too short. The other positions I took out the plastic retainers and used the nylon u nuts and screws

@Monty1719 Thanks for the links! This is the best mud flap option I’ve seen so far. It is like the old school ones from days long ago. Not so rigid, like the factory ones, that could break if you back into a curb (though I like the looks of the factory ones). And not expensive. Thanks for sharing.

Can you share some of the dimensions of the cardboard one on the left. The width of the main vertical cut.

Fender Guard Mud Flaps - Black ThermoFlex - 9" Wide x 15" Tall - Qty 2 Buyers Products Mud Flaps 337B915PPB (etrailer.com)

I made cardboard templates the cut the plastic guards. The hardest part was hardware. I did tuck the felt front skirts behind the metal fender so the front flaps fit more flush. It did take an afternoon to get them just right but for $30 it was worth it. They don't actually have the etrailer logo either

I cant assure you those are the correct sizes of u nuts and screw in the links but that is the idea of what you can use. You might need to put a piece of tape on u nut to keep it from falling into fender while you attach the mud flap.

I understand they are just examples. It gives a good idea of what to get.
I appreciate the measurements. Thanks!
