    Yeah he sold it. The other person was probably confused when they saw the truck and assumed MrGrimm was te new owner, not knowing he was actually the original owner.

    So these are not going to be cut out or pocket style flares....that makes me kinda sad because except for the bit on the bottom, it doesn't look like we're going to get any extra clearance from these :-\

    they stick out 1" over stock. he couldnt go any further w/o having a truck to test fit them on and see what he could get away with.

    No that is my truck

    Yep, I have had the truck for 5 years.

    Was for sale. My wife and I came to the decision that we NEED a truck and the Tacoma is already paid so we decided to just keep it.

    Still have the 4Runner. It is the wifes truck. The thing rides like a cadillac and sits higher than my Tacoma.

    Almost sold it.

    Lets get the tabloids correct here! I was going to sell it but ended up not selling it. I am gonna hold onto it and do some more mods.

    Yep, I made and installed Relentless' flares. The only difference between my flares and MrGrim's is that he just cut the sheet metal. I cut the sheet metal and the flares. Relentless flares are 2" narrow than stock and my current ones are 3" narrower.

    Yes, I am but I haven't listed anything yet. I'll be building another truck. Haven't decided on a long travel single cab or a SASed one.

    *UPDATE* First set has been made and is on their way to my place as we speak. The flares will have 1" larger than stock clearance. They could not go larger w/o having a tacom aon hand to see how it would look if they were bigger than that. They are fiberglass and ship in a flat black paint. When I get them in and installed, I will disclose any fitment issues, etc w/ Jungle Flares. After the OK, there should be pics, pricing, and all to go around.
