Why so expensive? I mean really? $350 for a hunk of molded plastic with bolts?

its the factor of having to have all the proper equipment to properly mold the plastic so your $350 flares dont break,fade, or chip.

it all depends on what flares you get. I had ones on my 05 that cost around $160. I believe they were Prestige

$350 to protect a $3,000 paint job is worth it IMO.

This is why I can't wait to get a set. My tires stick out past the fenders and it's a ***** to keep my purdy white truck clean

I have bought 3 sets in 2 years all bushwacker and love them. I just got in my latest set today for the CTD with wide tires I will always run flares to protect the paint.

I'm looking into a set for mine once I get a little more lift under her. After these new wheels, I bet my truck sits a foot wider now lol
