Bushwacker pocket style fender flares!
Just installed my fender flares!! Look great! Found that the passenger side fits better than the drivers side, as there are some gaps (@.0625"). Anyone else find this? Just had to do a bit of trimming around the "Turbo Diesel" logo in the front.

Pics would be great, I am looking at putting some on mine. I have large wheels and tires on mine that come close to rubbing when turning so I am curious how they fit and if my tires will rub if I install some.

Make sure to use 3m tape on the edges. Yeah I got the t-shirt. Pulled mine off a year later to run some 37's and had worn through the paint on about 1/2 of the contact area. Sure was ******. $4-500 bucks and Bushwacker should have said something in the directions and included the tape. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I'm happy with mine. Had them on for about four years, no problems. Not sure what the paint looks like underneath, but since I don't plan to remove them, I'm not worried about it.

Update! I loosened all the hardware, and pushed the flare up and into the truck and retightened everything starting from the center and working out. This is what customer service at Bushwacker told me to do, and it worked very well! No more gaps!! BTW, Bushwacker has EXCELLENT customer service!!
