    I like what op has done, but I gotta agree. I paid 32.2k for my DCSB OR and op has to be creeping up on that price with his rig.

    Looking real good! How difficult was changing out the flares? And care to share cost of OR flares. Thanks

    Not necessarily hard, but tedious. There are a few bolts holding them on, plus a few clips which are sure to break when you remove the flares. They also tend to get stuck in the fender so you have to remove them one by one.

    As for cost, I paid $200 for the set locally plus $50 for clips and rubber seals.

    I checked them out last nice and the output is very nice. I may need to tinker a bit more with height adjustment but set them at the same level the stock fogs were at. Way better and look very nice. Will post a wall pic with my HIDs later tonight.

    Got them installed a few days ago and aimed them to the level of the stock fogs for now so that I don't blind anyone

    Finally got the truck where I want it. The only thing I really need now is to tint the front windows. I will also get a Sport hood at some point if I can find someone to trade with.

    nice truck, but if you ever raced anything the first thing you learn is $0 towards free advertising. I allocate $0 dollars for decals. They can pay me for advertising.

    When you re-installed the fender flare did you pop it back on with the clips still in the fender or did you remove the clips and install them into the fender flare and then pop it back on? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

    You have to remove them from the fender first and put the clips in the flare. It's a pain. I learned that a good trick is to use needle nose pliers and rotate the clip 90* counter clockwise and it should slip right out. You'll have a difficult time otherwise.
