Any ideas where to buy front mud guards?

[DocSavage]

I just bought an 02 Sport Edition with no running boards for the wife. I like the look without the runners but want front tire protection from salt and slush this winter. I went to my local Toyota dealer and ordered OEM front mud guards.($43 each side)

When I picked them up and tried them on they didn't fit. So I went back to the dealer and checked all the part #s, they said yup, those are the one's. So I go back home a figure I can trim to fit. Still no deal, I still have one good one I can return.

Any help would be great, thanks.

I bet those mud guards are designed to fit the older style SR5 flat black flares.

OK, I figuered it out while checking out the Toyota parts site. The OEM part I need is called "Fender Flares, Mudguard". This is required when Fender Flares are installed w/o Running Boards. The parts guy must have went right to "Mudguards".

Toyota-4Runner.org is a great site. Oh and I must confess, the "wifes" 4Runner is more my toy then hers, she just doesn't know it. Do you think she'll notice if I put on a winch and suspension lift?
