I just pulled the trigger on a set of used 2500 fender flares from the same dude on ebay as jake09 did. I should have them buy thursday then I'll plasti-dip them for now until I go and get my bed hit up with some line-x and I may get them hit up too.

Just called the local linex place and holy crap!...460 total to do the flares. The breakdown is

$150 Front
$150 Rear
$160 UV protection

Add in the fact I want to get the bed done which will cost $439 with internet coupon I have and damn!....I'd be broke in a heartbeat. Looks like it'll be awhile before I get this done. Plasti-dip, here I come!

460 is absurd.

I think the reason they want to charge so much is because they are the only line-x place in clark county...vegas, henderson, boulder city, ect....

Oh and I'm going to have to go and buy some double sided tape, clips, and screws because they don't send any hardware with the flares. I don't know if it's because I'm a sport but there only two screws in the front wheel well that are in spots that can hold the flare on. These are used so the flares have been on another truck and after they were removed, the tape was never replaced so I'll need to do that myself.

I'm beginning to think that I might just hurculine the flares instead for the simple facts that A) it's a hell of a lot cheaper to do, B) I can do it really soon, and C) I wont waste money on the plasti-dip then have to rip it off.

I say plasti dip to see if your happy with the color combo.. Be kind of hard to recover them from truck bed coating.. Or photoshop..lol

Have you checked out monstaliner? I've been looking into diy bed liners and i think thats what im going with. The surface looks a lot better than herculiner or stuff that uses the tire flakes for grip. Supposed to hold up to uv better as well.
