Fender flares

[BlownGP]

I'm looking at buying this truck and I'm new to fender flares.
PLEASE tell me these can be taken off without damaging the paint. Do they just use double sided tape and some of the fender bolts?

Thanks

Probably just screws where the fender liner mounts up. There may possibly be some scratches where they contact the body depending on how tightly they fit and how much dirt was able to get behind them. If it's terrible (which I doubt) you put them back on. If not you polish out the paint and sell the flares. I agree they look dumb on that truck. If the tires stuck out some they would make more sense but not as it sits now.

The flares overall don't look bad in my opinion... But the fake bolts in those just make them look cheap.

I agree you should be able to take them off without any problems. Worst case scenario... Buy another set of flares without the bolt look.

Take em off .... Lil rubbing compound, polish, and some wax, and you’ll be fine .... Way too big a flare for a non-lifted truck with stock tires

Now some 2500 color matched flares would look damn good ... Jus sayin .... Lol

Take them off, see what if any damage may have occurred and try to fix it. If you can't fix the damage, then just replace them with a normal set of fender flares that will look much better.

Thanks guys. Makes me feel a little better. lol
I have a friend who details cares, so hopefully he can polish it if it's bad.

Good idea.

I'm not a fan of fender flares but I do like those. Not too much and when painted look great.
