I am looking for chrome fender flares for my truck. i would like them to look like they belong on it, but i dont have the money to pay 200 for a pair. i need all four sides. and if possible i would like the type with the bolt pattern. anyone know any site or anyone selling any?
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.
will any fender flares from a previous generation fit my 04?
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".
u could go with bushwackers
