A little extra protection

[reddot]

damn I thought this was going to be a thread on ****** use and I was going to tell you all about my double and triple wrapping but I guess its flare talk now.

I think they should work great on your truck. I think something like the rivet looking flares would be too much for your truck so I like these. Cant wait to see them on.

yea i got mine on ebay. I got lucky though, one morning before work, i was just about ready to get up and jump in the shower and it just hit me to look for flares quick. They were there and just recently list so i wasted no time and bought them.

Got them on the truck....they look great, you guy should see them

Looking forward to hearing how the install goes. You gonna use double sided tape or just the clips?

The install is pretty straight forward, removed the screws in the fender wells, put flare in and put screws back in. My truck came with the black plastic guards at the bottom i had to take them off too. Yes i used double sided tape, i don't think they would look good without becuase they would have a gap at the top. For anybody that gets used ones it takes more than 15 feet of double sided tape. 15 feet was just short of completing the 2 front and one back.

what do you mean?

the front flares stop at your bumper. But your bumper flows into your fender so the flare to me just looks like it stops in a "random" spot which makes it look incomplete to me.....

Really? Have not seen them. Remember who makes them. I cant imagine it looks worse.... These dont look bad, just...incomplete. :\

Thinking about putting them on my megacab. The guy I bought it from had them deleted when he ordered the truck....the *******.

see now it would work on your truck because of your bumper. Its not flush like the sports.

I cant make judgement till I see them. Did a quick google image search and did not find anything.....

That's the downfall of the 4th gen sport bumper with fender flares there is no break at the bumper like the slt's. Now third gens sports did have a definite break at the bumper.

I'm with jj. I have seen the ones that go all the way down. IMO they do not look good. Basically the 2500 flares are the lesser of 2 evils
