3rd gen fiberglass fenders

Hey, what's up? I was wondering if anyone here is running fiberglass fenders on their 3rd gen 4runner? I have an 01 sport with the beefy fender flares now, and my tires and rims come to just about the end of the flares, I only have 32s, but on 16x8 4"BS rims. I was wondering if the fiberglass fenders would look stupid with this setup. I tried to search for pics but couldnt turn up anything, if anyone has pics, hit me up. Thanks,
Jason

I am not running them, but I think they look sick! Run a search on google.

Damn man, nice, nice, I only run 265s, I'm thinkin thats gonna be a hella lot of flare, I wish I could get like 2-3" of flre, would be perfect. Also, your only runnin 3" of lift on that truck? Looks like a lot more, my 01 has 3.5" with coils and spacers, and looks tiny.

Wow, maybe I'll throw some 305s under my truck when I need some new meats then, that truck looks huge with only 4" of lift, like I said, I'm at 3.5" of lift, and my truck looks so small. Did you regear when you did those? And if not, how bad is it in the lower end?

Also, I called glassworks, and he said the fenders were preformed, and they can't change any specs on them. I might just wait until I need some new tires, and go with a setup like you have, they fill out really really nice, I think my 265/75s would look too small with the fiberglass fenders. Your not running any long travel arms or anything? I just cant get over how huge your truck looks.

I think its awesome how much clearance it gives, but I don't really like how far it flares out...

Are there any fiberglass rear quaters available for the 3rd gen 4runner? I see fiberwerx makes some sweet ones for the 2nd gen. http://www.fiberwerx.com/html/toyota.../bedsides.html

I would love to do that on my 3rd gen.
