I wanted to add some wider fender flares because my tires stick out quite a bit, due to the low backspacing on my SCS wheels. I like the look of the tires sticking out, but need some coverage for them. My front doors are getting quite a few stone chips in the paint.
After looking at all the options out there, I decided on the NYTOP fiberglass flares. They provide an additional 1.5” of coverage per side, which is more than any others out there.
Also, I knew I would need to modify the flares to fit with my custom front and rear bumpers, and these seemed the easiest to modify. I had to cut and rebuild/reshape the ends quite a bit to fit, but I think they turned out pretty good overall. After a lot of epoxy, filing and sanding, I painted them satin black to match my bumpers and sliders.
I didn’t take any pics of the process, but here they are installed.
As you can see, the flares line up almost perfectly with the outside of the tires.
Overall, I’m very pleased with how they turned out, and really like the way they look. I think it gives the truck a more aggressive look.
