That truck belongs to Big Blues Roommate. Send BB a PM...I'm sure he will know! Probably hard to get ahold of Hunter right now-just graduated and setting up a new business in Fredricksburg area.

I've been looking at their Extend-a-Fender flairs. Those are not them. The Extend a Fenders are 2" wide and look flater on top, IMO. Not sure. They do look like Bushwackers.

The extenda flares come down on the bottom and then flatten out where the OE style stays consistant with the flow of the body......
Check out this website....truck performance that should give you some idea of what they look like.

They are either Bushwacker OEM flares or a better bet is Xenon flares. The two look almost identical but the Xenon flares are much more durable than the crappy BW's. Also they mount to the truck better.
The one pictured do not look like BW OEM style flares. One way to tell, which is kind of difficult in the pic, is if there is a soft rub trim, about 1/8" wide, that goes around the flare on the top where it touches the fender. If there is the plastic trim them they are BW OEM style flares. If not they are most likely Xenon flares.
As I said if that is the look you like stay away from the POS Bushwacker OEM style and buy the much higher quality Xenon flares.

I have bushwackers (see pics), I picked them over the xeons because they are removable and look the same , infact I like the look of the rubber gasket along the edge instead of none. IMHO I think the worst thing is having dirt traped under your flares that is always wet and never gets a chance to dry out. I take mine off 2-3 times a year to clean out , ony takes a half hour to do.

Look at the back flare on the truck, the flare has the same trim line as the truck molded into the flare, Bushwackers have them Xenon don't. That's why I am almost certain they are bushwackers!!!
