    Ask visa or my wife. They both constantly remind me how much I've got left to spend.
    You can cut them to make them fit. That's what I did to fit around my step bars and it turned out nice.:D

    the space between my body and my bumpers is the concern... How do they actually attach? the gay blue and orange plastic clips or something tougher? also do they come ready to install if you just want em black?

    you remove the blue and orange clips, for the front flare they attach using some of the factory screws and the kit has screw clips (4 each side) that attaches to the fender lip. The top of your bumper sits below the flare or is the bumper higher then the end of the flare? Do you have a pic?

    Nice truck. To be honest, I wouldn't mess with the flares after my own experience. Lot's of money spent with no real practical gain. The average person wouldn't even know the truck was modded unless I got a bad paint job done on the flares.

    Just notice that tacoridinhigh (below) has the same bumper, he could help with your concern about space.:D
