Limited Fender Flares

Ok, I've got the cheap plastic fender flares. I hate them. I've wanted to put the wider Limited fender flares on for sometime. I have looked around and Bushwacker makes a set, however, it does not include the small flare which is on the front fender of the Limiteds. Does anyone know where I coudl get an actual Limited fender flare set, and for how much? Or is anyone willing to part with their set. I'll gladly trade and compensate. The dealership in town told me it the only way I could get them was to order each flare piece by piece costing over $1500 per side totalling 3k without installation. He said I would have to have them install it because holes would have to be drilled into the body. Any advice would help.

Talking Bone yard

I'd try a bone yard and pick up the pieces you need as you find them and then just paint them to match. Maybe you'll get lucky and find all four on one vehicle the right color. You are not going to find any for sale as they leave holes in the door and buying them from the dealer is just stupid. Bone yard definitely is my vote.

Yeah dexter's right. Take a look at my pics on my webshots account and you can see exactly what the Bushwackers look like. The Xenon flares are the ones that don't have the littl front piece.

I just got my Bushwackers last week and they include the front piece since that was also a concern with me too and they included all the rubber gaskets material too which I heard wasn't included on the earlier sets.

I think Jonathan has the regular bushwacker flares, Xpresident is talking about a specific set that they make that actually gives you the flares and the cladding. Performace products sells them for like 500 bucks (At least I think maybe he could be talking about these..)

I also would love a pic of someone who has them installed. Am I with ya Xpresident?

i'll take either, i debated about the cladding because i think it's sometimes a little too much. the 4runners without the cladding just look clearner to me. Plus buffing and waxing would take more time. But either or, as long as i get the front bumper piece, that was my main concern.

They both have the front piece no matter if you get the cladding or not. The ones with the cladding of course are more expensive, and I haven't heard of anyone getting those, so you will probably be the guinea pig on that endeavor. Let us know what you decide and make sure you post pics when you're finished.

Are you still needing the running boards and flares/cladding?

Someone with the earlier versions of the Limited Kit from Bushwacker installed that came without the bumper piece.
