    Looks great. I was just thinking about this today and this post popped up. Was debating to take them off the truck but looks like that’s not necessary

    It was a bit of a challenge to wrap with the fenders not removed
    But yes not necessary

    Looks great actually. I'm the opposite of capable when it comes to vinyl.

    Looks great. How much vinyl did it require? Did you buy 20x5 ft?

    how durable is the vinyl? I ended up buying OEM fender flares and have scratched them up pretty good on trails. Just wondering if the vinyl would hold up to any branches, etc.

    LED interior, license plate, and fog lights. More to come.
    I really like it. I have a silver SR5 and have been thinking the flares would look better in matte black. Might give this a try.

    Checking in for an update. How did this hold up? Did it shrink at all since you left the fenders on during application? Are you still happy?

    Looks awesome!
    It would almost be hard to tell you had painted flares instead of OR style flares.

    Great job!
