35's & fender flares

I put them on myself. Really simple install. If I recall correctly the fronts utilize the wheel well splash guard bolts and the rears were self tapping screws. The holes in the fender flares have pre-drilled holes in them. There is a 3M rubber piece that goes on the flare to protect the paint. The adhesive side attaches to the fender flare not the fender.

They are a really good fit. I've had them on for a little over a year now and they don't flex or move at all at speed and they fit with zero gap between the flare and the fender.

Excellent!!!!!!

thank you very much!

They look almost identical, but if I remember correctly the ones on the red truck were not made by bushwaker.

these look like your buddy's, they call them OE style.. rounded off with 1.5" of coverage. any way you can findout who made your buddys flares? im dangerously close to buying these OE style ones.

I don't know where I stole this picture from (maybe this site) but I really like these flares. Look at the rear one, they look like they don't stick out that far and I like how they contour to the body. Don't know the brand.

Mine are still different than those. Mine are stuck on with 3m trim tape and screwed inside like those. But they have a flat contour first before they flare. I've really never seen them on anything else so far.

Mine are the OE ones from Ford. Running 36x 15.5x 18 on 5.5" of lift. They are similar to the bushwacker ones.

Do they actually cover the wheels tho? They don't look like they go out too far. I need them to cover the wheels to be...."more" legal, lol

They pretty much cover everything. And remember, my tires are 36x15.5, Most are x12.5. And it will depend on your wheel backspace. My wheels are very deep so the tires sit more under the truck then most other rims. I don't have my truck right now to take a pic cause i let Seabee08FX4 borrow it. I can take a picture of it when i get it back.
