Looks deadly man! Makes me wanna paint my grille and demold.

I think some OEM flares painted tan to match the bottom would look sweet I'm looking into getting a set.

Thanks man, and believe it or not I have some flares ordered to do exactly that! I also found a bed yesterday from an older gentlemen who put a flat bed on his truck when he bought it new in 1997 so the dent on my truck is soon to be gone along with a new paint job :) I bought the bed and the bumper with it for $500 even! sweet deal IMO. And yes I beleive you should do a colormatched grille with a demold as well, it makes these trucks look a lot more modern IMO.

Thanks man, your truck looks pretty mean to! Just out of curiosity, did your truck have the flares on it from the factory?

Haha unfortunately I do know after an "oopsey" last fall and breaking it into a million peices along with destroying my fender... but to answer your question, they are screwed onto the lip of the fender, but i would also suggest using double sided tape along the upper edge of the flare to keep unwanted junk out... Mine was filled with dirt and dust, but when I respray the truck this spring, I'm deffinetly using double sided tape
