Bushwacker made fenders for the 5th gen!!

I had mine painted Attitude Black to match the 4Runner. I ended up doing a bit of cutting to get them matched up with the SW front and rear bumpers. I also went ahead and actually bolted them to the fender.

I found it interesting that Toyota has these Bushwackers on their "T-Force" model coming out soon.

Lookin good! Getting me all jealous of you 2014+ owners.. Would anyone like to do the honours in being the guinea pig who tries to put them on an early 5th gen??
 
Stupid question, but what are these for?

Theoretically to keep your body and paint from being splashed with mud, dirt, sand, and salt from tires that are sticking out further, either due to wheel spacing choice, spacers, or both.

But these don't seem wide enough for that.

Also, if you've ever driven with the window down and taken a rock to the head at 70 mph...

I know the general idea; I had extended fenders on my other cars when I wanted to have the new wheel to be matching body line.
I asked exactly because they don't appear to be large enough. [emoji13]
 
thats great if the rock came from the tire.... but it was me throwing it at you:flipoff::rockthrow:

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

^^ where the hell did that come from?

LMFAO right? Not sure where your mom or medical science came into the conversation..... you said driving with the window down taking a rock to the head.... if I missed where you talked about some medical condition your mom has related to bushwacker flares I apologize. My mom recently passed so I tend to be careful with those things..... but if the offer to buy me a plane ticket is open I will take you up on that! Ain't been to CO in a minute!

this block of nonsensical text is to be used as a device to baffle and incite confusion amongst users of internet forums...

It's an old meme from like 2007:p

I'm on the fence about the Bushwhackers because they don't give enough coverage, and installing them may cause more potential rust spots than I want.

That and I haven't decided on what kind of bumper to get on my 5th gen 2013--so I'm going to have to wait until I get my front bumper installed, then get them and trim them accordingly. They should be able to fit a pre 5.5th gen without the stock front bumper, with trimming to clear the sliders.

There's a guy in town who has them, but it'd seem creepy to be trying to see what the clearance is with a tape measure without his permission.
 
Copypastas have place and time. This isn't one of those.
I'm going to check out one of our local 5th gens with these
 
Even the guys at BW told me to beware that these flares tend to grind the paint off the contact points from dirt/debris building up, even if you clean them well.

There's a shit ton of Mag Chloride on the roads and I'm already fighting rust on the tailgate and undercarriage.

What I want are some lo-pro Jeep-style flares that just catch the debris.

The 4Runner paint still is better than the FJC, tho.

I wish they'd just make an extended fender, as the pocket style is fairly tacky looking.
