1st Gen Taco Fender Flares

Does anyone know of any companies that sell 1st gen Taco fender flares for cheap? The cheapest ones I can find are $250, why are they more expensive then new Taco flares? I found Jungle Flares but I am wary of buying them...

I found mine used on FB marketplace, offered the guy $150. He probably would've sold them for $100 though.

 

those are way too shiny

 

I’ve been having good pick and pull luck, worth a shot to look there. Even if they’re not new, they look badass with a coat of Linex or DIY Herculiner on them. I did mine with Herculiner and love the new look.

 

Yeah those do look good, although I have no junkyard or car yard anywhere close to me.

 

I also got mine off of FB Marketplace. Although it was several hours away, I luckily had a Taco owning friend that lived near by to get them.

For some reason the seller initially had $100 on a set of 4. I messaged him and the next morning he dropped the price to $40. No clue why. I paid my friend $20 so I feel VERY lucky I got them for $60 total. They were Line-Xed but one of the flares had multiple tabs broken off that I had to replace with PVC parts glued into place.

If you're not in a hurry and can regularly check Marketplace, CL and eBay, you'll eventually find a set for a reasonable price. I thought all other prices were unreasonable though.

 

Yeah, My tires stick out around 2 inches because the wheels are offset and I am not trying to destroy my paint this winter, I am defiantly going to start looking.

 

This probably won’t be much help, as it’s only a front set, but just in case...

Side note where did you get the door decals to replace the emblems?

 

CBoy808 He’s got a thread on here about custom decals, he does good work!
