What's up people? I guess the thread I started in another section should've went here.

Here's a couple pics...

Loving the truck man!

^^^ Correct, they are Bushwhacker pocket-style flares.

They run around $450 - $475 but you can catch them on sell. I bought mine from Amazon at $360 and free shipping. I had them painted for only $100, but that was by a family member's friend. One place wanted $350 to paint them, which I thought was crazy.

hard to install???

The front ones literally took about 5 minutes...just remove the 3 factory 8mm screws, hold the flare in place and reinsert and tighten 8mm screws.

The back ones take longer but that is because there are only 2 factory 8mm screws in the front of the rear fender. Then, at the rear of the fender there are two factory holes that you slide clips (supplied with flares) over and screw in. Also included are 3 s-clips and screws in between those mounting locations.

What takes the longest is prep work, which includes:
1) putting on rubber trim (can't see in pic but it goes between flare and truck)
2) drilling holes and installing all the stainless bolts, washers and ny-lok nuts; but there are indents where u drill so the drill bit doesn't walk.

The stainless torx head bolts you see are just for looks. All hardware, rubber trim and even T45 torx bit is included with the flares.

Bushwhacker is excluded in the 15% off (friggin fine print sucks!), but a good deal nonetheless.
