I ordered my mopar flares last week, they are supposed to arrive tomorrow (17 May, 2011) I am looking forward to installing them. I will post pictures to let you know of any problems, if any, I have.

I am curious to see if they work. Have heard a lot of problems with the club cab fitment.

I installed the Mopar flares on my 2008 Dakota club cab last year and they fit prefect,
I even ordered the bumper extensions. (real pain in the butt to install those)
Only thing was, I had to purchase a Pop rivet gun as they (Mopar) use LARGE
pop rivets... and a standard pop rivet gun does not work... LOL... hope you know someone that works at a glass/bump shop
that you may borrow one. the local parts places did not have any and could only find one at @
$168.00. I purchased one off ebay below:
