McNeil Racing 3" Fiberglass Fenders


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey all, I just put a set of McNeil Racing Fiberglass Fenders on my 2015 Silverado and wanted to post some photos and information for anyone that is considering going this route.

The fitment and overall quality is excellent; zero complaints.

 

With a leveling kit spacer or leveling strut such as a Bilstein, Fox, King, etc, these will clear true 35's.

 

If anyone has any questions, let me know! :driving:

This replaces you whole fender? Interesting, not sure I am a fan of the fiberglass but still pretty cool.

That is correct! It's definitively more of an "extreme" modification for most people. But for me, it was exactly what I wanted/needed.

Love the look but I wish they made them in steel as well. I would love to throw some 37s on with a 6" lift but I think that would require something like this for the front. Wouldn't personally look into the fiberglass unless I was living in the desert (which you are).

 

Looks amazing though. You thinking about a chase rack at all?

Thanks, yeah 37's would be pretty awesome!

 

I considered going the chase rack route, but I think I'll keep everything in the bed for now. Eventually when I get a long travel race kit, I'll probably end up building a rack built into a cab/bed cage.

 

Edit: I forgot to mention, I'll be lining the wheel wells with a Rhino Liner type product and I'll wrap the fenders with 3M clear bra to help protect it. Hopefully that will make these things last me quite a while.

Can't wait to see that come along! I've heard that rhino lining the inside helps quite a bit with keeping them alive.

Are the tires you have on the truck now 35s? I just added Bilstein level struts on my 16 and am considering these to clear 35s if it's really just that easy.
