--TOYOTA FIBERGLASS GUIDE-- Glassworks, Fiberwerx, McNeil, Hannemann

I agree, since they handed it over to the son, the company has gotten 10x better! Everytime I’ve talked to him, nothing but great service . I’ve heard that so many times about the McNeil glass around the tail lights.

 

Rookie question. im guessing it would look weird with 2” up front and 4 in the rear. Do most of you guys go even front to back or wider in the front? Or depending on suspension

 

Depends on what you got up front. Slamming glass cause of a really wide kit tends to make that decision pretty fast. Standard 4 inch glass fenders for a 3.5 kit. Many swap if they go to a 4.5 or wider front to 6” glass. I think it’s rare to find 6” bedsides but I think they do make them from certain spots, but if not just rock what you need to keep your panels from blowing. With the cash involved in LT, everything is function driver at that point anyway.

 

Makes sense. I guess im just trying to wrap my head around having a lt rear with mid travel up front. Because that would be the case for awhile. So that would be 4” bedsides. Just thinking it would look pretty weird if I didn’t match the front to the rear. So the front would be mostly cosmetic for a bit

 

I ran glass fenders up front for a year before I threw on LT. Just get front fenders now as I agree just rears are kind of weird.

 

I think tacoma ventures on instagram has 2”front and 4” rear.

 

I’ll have to check that out thanks!

 

The 2005-2015 Tacoma Fenders features a 6” flair and 3” rise. These fenders feature an aggressive slight TT look that mirrors the styling of our 1-piece system. Being one of our favorite designs, they are hard to keep on the shelf. The bumper caps are an option but not necessary, they add to the already rad design.

Looking at all your guys' photos is making the decision that much harder for me. I've been ready to pull the trigger, but can't decide on a company haha.

 

Wait until Black Friday

 

that's what I'm waiting for. Just gotta figure which one works best with the stock bumper.

 

I’d recommend ADV, great customer service and fitment. Glass is pretty thick too. I’ve had a few people wanting to swap their McNeils out for ADV cause of the fitment difference

 

To add to that...I think they are much more consistent with swapping molds frequently to keep the fitment top notch. Im not ecstatic about my mcneil glass...but I can deal with it.

 

What kind of suspension are you running on this? This looks almost identical to what I had in mind on one I’m trying to build.

 

My guess is standard 2.5 kings. With wheel spacers and a good offset they match up pretty well with the fenders.

 

Any 1st gen pics with 8" flat top fiberwerx bedsides?

 

@Fiberwerx Saw the pics of @J Prich's race truck on the website - couldn't view these ones - looks like the link didn't work, but curious to see them on a truck just the same!

 

The ones I posted were of Jprich's truck. I'll see if I can dig up some others. You definitely want to have a fullsize, or aftermarket housing with these bedsides.

 

I appreciate it! Yes I am installing a wider axle from a 2nd gen on my truck and wheel spacers to match my solo xlt kit.
