    Hi all, I would like to swap this paint matched fender for the simple black plastic one. Is this an easy process and would it show any holes/cuts afterwards? I could not find any info going from this style to the black plastic type elsewhere. Thanks for the help all!

    98-00 flares were fiberglass, 01-04 were plastic

    It looks like you have a 99 with painted flares? I'm not actually sure if those were plastic or fiberglass. Yours look slightly different with the flat edge compared to the black fiberglass ones. 98-00 flares only attach at the bottom of the fender with screws. 01-04 attach at the bottom with screws and into the side with plastic clips
