    What do you mean Drew? Because of the collision from yesterday? The guy only whacked my door and that in turn whacked the fender as a side result.

    You said you're going to replace the front fenders with glassworks fenders. They are a 4 inch flare, or you can get the 6 inch flare, meaning the fenders are wider. The fenders will be 4-6 inches wider than the ends of your front bumper. You will either have to get your bumper ends extended or remove the bumper and have one made to the width of the glassworks fenders. It looks like the ends of your bumper curve around to follow the lines of the OEM fenders. The glassworks fenders will smash into the bumper ends under flex.

    gotcha. I see what you are saying. I'll give them a call to find out and confirm what you are saying I would go with 4" ones, but regardless, the ends of them I'm almost positive have to bolt up to the same mount locations as stock. So I'm not sure that it would be an issue at all.

    Update: The other parties insurance company are accepting full liability for the collision on my door. They have ordered an OE door, OE hinges, and have placed an order for Glassworks Baja fenders... :D

    In the meantime they have supplied me with a rental vehicle as well. A 2014 Dodge Ram 1500. Not my choice of vehicle, however, it beats the hell out of driving a sedan, and it's still 4X4, not that I'll be needing that on the rental.

    Thanks bud! It's out of operation at the moment thanks to my neighbors bad judgement, but it'll be back with a vengeance soon. :)

    I am SO happy with my decision to have picked them up! Worth every penny spent and they by far surpassed my expectations for performance out in Pismo Beach and offroading in general. I highly recommend them. The guys over there are real stand up guys also. Very nice, helpful, and patient with all of your questions, no matter how simple or complex it is.

    Update: Week 4 and the truck is still is in the body shop. The adjusters have approved all necessary repairs and the baja fenders finally arrived this Monday, so now work can move along very quickly. I foresee receiving the truck mid to late next week at the latest. I just received some replacement new bedside TRD decals which I will be having them install while the truck is there. I'm lovin' it kinda like McDonald's ;) .... Know what I'm sayin'?

    Rear Total Chaos bolt on air bump cans / Fox air bumps on the way! I will be utilizing the Icon U-bolt flip bracket for the strike pads on the bottom so I can maintain the flip kit on the axle.
