In case you ever think you might want fender flares on a daily...

Damn, I've heard of the paint rubbing but never thought about the rust. How long did you have the flares on for? Makes me second guess if I should still get them.

How did you fix it? Bed 1/4’s with new wheel wells?

Nice work, very nice. Did you do something different to the flares when mounting them? Seal them in any way to the body to prevent the water intrusion? Way curious about that, as I like flares on my trucks a lot...

The truck turned out great and I love your dog's bandana!

Well, they “hide” it well. Looks great!

I had a set of flares I was putting on another truck, and it had a gap on all of the flares around the tops gaping from the body. I caulked them with some silicone caulk. DID NOT turn out well after several months, started peeling off, no good.

Hopefully she didn’t do a drive by. Another one who hasn’t been around awhile is Ryan. There’s times I figure what more can be said? I try to think up vehicle related topics to keep it fresh. There’s been a few good ones who got bored I guess and moved on.
