Flares for a Reg Cab?

That was my first thought when I saw this thread. I was like damn I want those fenders and bedsides. I took off my flares and I want the smooth look rather than plugged holes.

 

I think I agree with everyone else and would suggest not going fender flares but doing some sort of color vinyl to add the color pop you are looking for. Maybe a large yet subtle bedside vinyl decal? You could also almost use a 1/2" spacer in the rear right now. Again, just some personal opinions... your truck is very clean/well done as it sits.

 

Hey now, you have a white regular cab with black flares in your signature and it looks good. Me so confused. Is that your truck? Do you have any larger pictures of it?

 

I agree that a little more "stance" would look nice, but the issue that brings is that the truck is lowered 3" and the tires won't "tuck" if I load-up the bed and hit some large bumps

 

Leave it alone. That thing looks sick the way it is. Love how smooth the lines are on it...especially the front bumper!

 

Thank you! I really like driving around in a one-of-a-kind Taco... although nearly no one in Wisconsin where I live seems to know or care that it's a custom build.

 

Hmm... a super-bad photoshop to my truck reveals that perhaps I should just stay with plain white after all. I'm not realy digging this. Bummer... I was so looking forward to adding some color.

 

I would leave as it is plus the XRunner body kit.

 

Just do the bed decals leaving the front clean.

 

Can you point me to where I can buy the same front bumper you got? I have the same White Taco and I’ve been wanting to upgrade it from the stock black bumper to a same color white or X runner type front bumper

 

I had a stock bumper custom painted locally as there is no OEM colored bumper that doesn't have fender flare holes.

 

I picked up from rockauto xunner lower grill and left and right spoilers and burnt holes with solder gun with flat tip .If you dont want to mess with bumper you can order xrunner bumper .Comes with holes .For parts I spent about$450 but thats with shipping to Hawaii. I ended painting spoiler white .
And added little more extras latter .




Edit Just noticed might look funny without flares

 

I cringe at these kind of builds, its a lil pick up truck

 

And ?

 

You possibly could find someone with a 6 lug regular cab or anyone with a long bed and swap for that matter. I've had my flares off most of the time I've drove the truck because I pulled them thinking I'd paint them and liked it without them. If I was keeping the truck longer I'd look for someone to trade the 5 lug body panels with.

 

And your truck ISN'T a lil pickup truck? Didn’t your momma ever teach you about saying nice things or nothing at all?

 

Yeah, no flares anywhere, but dang... I think my truck would look hot with flares and this black bumper trim!

 

Your truck looks good just the way it is.

 

yeah but his is a 2x4 mines a 4x4

 

Oh man, 4x4's make me cringe.
