    I have seen those, very nice but like you said, pricey. Got a pic of them on your truck?

    I was thinking of maybe getting a set of these and then attaching them with some quarter turn fasteners....

    I mounted them in pre existing holes, thats why the fronts are higher than the rears. I used one of the bolt/holes for the black box to mount the inside of the front flaps. I actually bought a set of vortex ones first but didn't even install them. I sent them back because they did not look good on the truck IMO.

    Eh, RokBlokz gives you the mounting hardware in the kit. No f'ing around getting them on. An offset screwdriver and zip bam boom, they're on . . .
