Check out the black Taco on Badland Bumpers site.

I see Jeff has added quite a few pics to his site over the past few days including a few of mine

That black Taco above has some nice mean flares on it.
Probably aftermarket.
Have you looked at Perf's site?
http://www.performanceproducts.com
Thier site is down right now though, at least as when I type this.

Here are some factory ones on Rob's Tacoma.

Have you looked at Bushwackers?
I run the Extend a Fender model by them.

Perf makes their own brand too that uses clips to hold them on without drilling.
To bad their site is dead right now, or I'd post some pics from there.

Central 4WD has free shipping right now on the Bush's.

To bad they don't have a Toy pic though.

uhm that's a stepside genius .

hedghog I just ordered some Bushwacker Extend-a-fender flares from www.jcwhitney.com yesterday. They were $259 for a set of 4 with free shipping, you aren't going to beat that price anywhere. Their website also has a pic of a toyota with them on.

hedghog,

I just ordered bushwackers for my ,97 4Runner and they will set me back about $565 Can. They first send me the wrong set which was $525 and for a tacoma. That is from a local shop in town. I ended up going all over the place and had quotes up to $850.
I recommend shopping around (I asked at about 10 places over the last couple of months, obviously I was not in a hurry). The shop closest to me was by far the cheapest, but the tacoma set had to be returned and the 4Runner set has to be ordered. That will take a couple of weeks at least .

I am in Mission, BC
