Fender Flares?

Hey my dad has a 1990 toyota 4runner and we are trying to find some fender flares for it. They are very hard to find for the sec gen 4runners for some reason but the only thing is he wants them to be 2-3 inch tire coverage flares anyone know where i could find some like this.

Um Iceland style fender flares I believe they are called Not positive thats what they are called but make the biggest for the second gen runners ive seen!

Also fiberglass fronts can be made and they are sold out there that cover much more up front atlest

Other than that you SOL

Could make your own out of many different materials but usually look cheezy and crap

I had the same dilemma once before but now I just trail my rig so fender flares are nothing to me!

If you desire 3" coverage, you could retrofit the Bushwacker pickup cut-outs like this guy did:

https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f2/d...4runner-22417/

I thought about doing it a few years ago, but then I decided I didn't like the look of them on our 4runners.

Regardless, you're not going to do it cheap w/o it looking like crap IMO :|
