Need some mudflap help

I have done a few searches to find the part numbers of the front black plastic mud flaps (since i removed my running boards) and havnt been able to find any place to get them. I tried TRDparts4u.com but they said the parts were discontinued and not available through them. so I tried ebay... this is the closest I can find, and its too bad they dont have a real photo of it here. The part numbers dont match up, and it says it fits the SR5 with factory flares... is that refering to the black flares, or just the base model with the chrome trim? Thanks for any help guys

Not a 100% sure but are you looking for front flaps? If so, these look like the ones you should be getting. The mudflaps w/ flares look different b/c they have a piece that matches up to the existing flare. The one you're looking for will look like the one in the picture. To be honest, I haven't seen many of these around.

If all else fails, there was another thread where they discussed using the Taco flaps for the front of the runner. It won't bolt on like factory but much easier to find and replace. Good luck.

So is there only 1 Northridge Toyota? or can you narrow it down to a state that its in? I found a website for one in california and they had a lot of parts, but I didnt see any mudflaps.

BTW I do have the black fender flares and need the front ones that fit on with them.

You may want to be careful...I looked at a few cheap pairs for my fronts after removing the running boards and they did not look like they matched the rear guards. I ended up buying the matching set to my back mud guards for $90 from the dealer. Price was heavy but the fit and look (and quality) is worth it.

I agree. The local stealership wanted $100 for the front pair. I got mine from 1sttoyotaparts.com for about $50 shipped for the pair. They fit great and match my flare perfectly. Only thing is they're brand new and depending on how old your flare is, you may need a lot of armor all to make it match.

lol thanks guys... I did a search and got the part numbers, and ran em past the guy I talked to. He went to check and make sure it was what I was looking for and I got the pair for about $83 shipped, but its better getting my paint all chipped up, plus it will look much nicer. Thanks for all the help guys, I'll post some pics once I get em

I did, I called northridge and had him even go through the computer to look up the parts I needed. He came up with the same part numbers I had on hand. He quoted me $32 for passenger and $33 for driver or somethin, not sure why they were different and neither was he. I hope they are the right parts.

Wazioc-

Sounds like you ordered the right parts... That is exactly what I paid for my front mudflaps at my local dealer (even the $1 difference between the left and right). The ones I have look just like the ones in Fuzion's picture. Don't know how he got such a great deal, but you should be all set.

Yeah thats why I had said to make sure they give you the ones that are $30 for the pair because they have 2 of the same set style but with 2 different prices.
the bogus one and the good one

I have the part #s in my 4runner that i got and maybe they can refund you half of your money.

How do these things hold up to off road abuse? they look like they would last me one or two passes through the mining and logging roads I get on. Mike

The picture I posted is for all color trucks with the black flares, it all depend on the flares you have.

I would highly recomend removing the running boards, I did it the first night I had my truck, and it just looks so much better.

As for the mudflaps, They are ordered and on the way, and I'm not too worried about the extra money. If they are as durable as my back pair, I dont care. My back ones got caught on a few rocks and logs first time I had it off road, and I was scared they were going to break off because they are rigid, but they did fine. Bent and twisted enough to avoid snapping off.
