KBD fender flares

[Rbritton7]

Mine still look great, but rarely sits in the sun. I sprayed them with some 303 protectant the other day and they darkened up some and match most of the plastic on the Bronco.

Good to note, thanks! I guess my only other question would be what do you do when you have to remove that front valence?? Had to pop it out when I put my oracle headlights in and it required disconnecting the front couple clips on the OEM flares, but since these are taped to the fender im not sure how that would be possible. Rig looks sick btw

I have had mind on for about 8 months. No problems at all. No chips in the flares. And the paint is doing great too. Don’t have chips on my side either. But then again I am running 255/85/17. So very little poke.

this thing is beautiful. Just wanted to let you know. probably one of my favorite builds I've seen yet!

Thank you very much. I have now had the flares for almost two years, and they are still doing great.

So I bought some flares from a local member. They are brand new. Are the flares supposed to look like the ends are smashed in? Some areas are distorted on the back side too....is the backside supposed to look like it still needs a second stage of smoothing? I know it's the backside but most places still make it at least kinda smooth looking.

Did anyone need to use "heat" to reform the flares like they say in their video on their website for their bumpers?

Mines look like they need to get painted too, can't just throw it on. I am thinking bedliner coating would look like stock?

Here is an example below. The right side is the backside, see how it is distorted. The rubber is softer back there but I hope it flattens out to the body when installed...

It has been over two years since I put mine on. I can’t remember exactly what they were like. But they were definitely not pretty. Mine went on pretty straight forward. They ended up pealing away from the fender about a year later. So I ended up putting a bead of silicone adhesive on the backside and taping them in place with painters tape for a day to let them dry in position. They have been great even since.
