Default Fender flares "psi"

Hello guys,

any of you have tried the "psi" fender flares?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/271968611069

they look nice, also they have the "pseudo bolts" that gave them a better look

what do you think?

should I take the risk?

a user on here looks like he has them on his truck. no 100% sure but it's the only pocket style flare that i know of

His thread is here. It's about his overheating but the image shows those flares.

there was someone else who had asked here, but we don't know if he tried them out or not.

there really isn't any feedback on this forum about those flares. hopefully someone else will chime in.

I've got them on my truck. I'm very happy with how they turned out. First one took some time to put on then the next three were easy. About a 2 hour install.

I also added 2 in hub centric wheel spacers to keep the finder flares from looking like they were gonna swallow my stock rims.

On the front you remove the stock painted mud flaps and use their holes and then you put s clamps on the fender lips to attach the rest. On the back it's all s clamps. No drilling the torx bolts are just for looks.

When I seen how they were going to be attached I was skeptical but then I was surprised how well they held. I did add black washers that I got at a hardware store to help hold the plastics flare to the metal lip.

I think the heifers would like you to paint them the same red as the body colour. They think they look over the top and garish! LOL
