Default Baja fenders

Has any bought those fibre glass baja fenders for our trucks? I can't decide how they look and I'm looking for more photos.

ghey as ****!

seen it on older Ranger early 90's and it well i couldnt stop laughing how it ridiculous it looks... body styling isnt alot different then the dakota so gave me an idea ... although i seen second gen dakat's with them and they were pretty nice. probably due to way the front is designed to begin with VS older box style that makes the baja fenders stick out like its got cancer tumor!

ive seen alot around here with them, the nicest is seen was a later model(2012) Pre runner Ranger but it was completly setup with suspension and all and looked awsome

Ahh **** I was thinking bout getting them for tire clearance I kinda assumed they would look gross. I'm thinking about hoping to 35/10.5r15s I know 12.5s will hit a body mount just not sure on 10s

its not so much body mount.. . been there , its the fact the fender width is only 32 inches roughly in length so tire just dont fit for suspension travel so body lift is required or more suspension.... or sawzall..lol you know the story HAHA

Here is where you can buy them. If they are your style go for it. But for clearance for 35's your best bet is a little corner cutting and offset rims.

I have offset rims from my parts truck an that guy had 35 on his truck he told me the body mount got in the way so he "moved it" with a sledge hammer. To bad they never made a better looking baja fender
