  3. The type with the bolt pattern is 06+, and if you'll need to re-drill holes for them, just a heads up.

    I was un aware chrome fender flares existed. I've never seen a set before.
     
  6. I don't even think they make chrome ones dude... You have a picture or a link to what you mean?

    The 01-04 ones, I have two. Driver's rear, and passenger front. I lost the other two on the highway. If your truck hasn't come with flares from the factory, you'll have to drill holes in the fender to mount them anyways.

  10. Oh. Those aren't available in the 06 style. You're pretty much only able to get those ones. If you're getting rid of the stock ones, I'm looking for a set. Name a price. Which one's the messed up one?

    The chances of finding even factory flares for that kind of money is slim. The problem is most junkyards rarely separate the flares from the fenders or bed. Sold as a combo. From Ford it's the same way. The price on Bushwackers is generally about $300-400 a set (of four).

    I suggest if all yours are trashed, go for Bushwacker flares. They're a local company to me and all their products are of very very high quality. Plus they include finishing accents that the factory does not offer. Namely a small plastic bushing/protector type of thing that goes between the flare and the sheet metal.

    The styles I suggest are the Extend-A-Flender and the Pocket style. One provides more than stock coverage while the other provides that plus a little "off-road" flare. Their OE style is more styled after the 98-00 factory styled flares. In other words, they aren't styled like your factory 01-05 flares.

    The chrome trim flares are somewhat gross on these trucks. Especially on ones that once had flares from the factory. On flare-less trucks, they look alright. But on a flared truck, please no. Nobody wants fender holes.



    98-05 are the only factory flares that will bolt right into your truck and it's fender holes. 93-97 is a possibility, but I haven't an accurate clue.

    06+ they made the flares larger and in-turn, made the mounting circle larger as well. So those won't just simply "clip-in".



    This.
