    Hige props/thanks to @notori for their tutorial here:
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fender-flare-installation-on-non-flared-tacomas-tutorial.494336/

    saved me literally hours and was super clear and thorough.

    on to the pics (before and after)

    next up on my to do list is to refinish some ‘05 Sequoia 5 spokes with Hyperdip’s “brass monkey”

    Looks great! I ended up doing similar on mine but vinyl wrapping the flares. Time will tell how the vinyl holds up to rocks.
