Any interest in a carbon flare kit for our trucks?

I was considering having flares made but need to cover mold costs etc. Gauging interest here.

 

Might check with the xrunner crowd. Seems more their style

 

Was waiting to hear back from the mold maker on some details. I dont have costing yet so thats all up in the air. But theres some options.

raw carbon (for paint)
matte clear
gloss clear

would make flares 1" wider than stock. Preserve OEM look and fit. So basically a bushwacker style flare in carbon but OEM look/fit.

 

I really have no desire for anything CF on my rig, but the 1" over stock width has my attention!

 

Yeah I dont care about CF at all. It's the ability to make something a bit different, Additional width to better fit aftermarket bumpers, more aggressive wheels with an OEM look would be cool. I'd just have them painted anyhow. I cant really stand the look of bushwackers with the fake rivets and a general shape that doesnt follow body lines.

 

If you can do a complete OEM-style hood replacement, I'm down.

 

maybe different material ?

 

Like others have already mentioned, if you make them in a material closer to OEM you’ll most likely sell a lot more of those than CF. CF is cool but I personally don’t feel it belongs in th off-road market as they’ll get damaged from trail rides.

Now on the other hand, you may want to reach out to those guys that over compensate with a 12” lift on 22x20 inch “rimz”.

 

Flares, no. Hood... yes?

 

tell me more
