Default Eddie Bauer Fender Flare Opinions

I really want fiberglass but since I would just break it the first time I went wheeling I decided to see what the Eddie Bauer flares off the '97 parts truck would look like on my truck painted white. What do you guys think of them? I like how they look and since they're plastic they won't break when (not if but when) I scrape them along a rock. The plastic will give and not break.

I don't like how they look when black. What I really like are the fiberglass fenders but with the way I wheel I'd break them the first time out. I'm leaving them white.

Thank you for reminding me about mine.




Just stock plastic ones. I'll need a spacer in the rear (or a newer isuzu axle to fill them out right)

Those look good. I wanted to use the rears but they are going to work on my truck. The reason I wanted to use the is because my rear tires are wider than the body and I was hoping I could use the flares and then cut the metal on the fender so they cleared on full compression. So instead I'm going to try and flare the metal out enough to clear. I already rolled the lip and that wasn't enough so I'll try to flare them.
