Bushwacker flares are the real wide ones arent they??

If so where can u get them from and can u get them to suit an 80 series?

any ideas on price?

thanks guys

We import them.
No they dont do them for an 80.
Fitting flares of something else is possible, but it probably wont look right.

wat about the ones they run on thee artic trucks??

They're not actually Bushwackers.
They are fibreglass guard. We have access to them, but they're pretty pricey. ( consider the freight on a box that 4 of those suckers will fit in ) Can look in to it if you want.

umm yer i dont reckon i would be able ot afford em.. but if u bored one day ya could look if ya want.. jsut for the hell of it

Are you looking at replacing the fibreglass flares on an 80 series? I've beenlooking at this for a little while and haven't come up with a great alternative so I just keep patching the fibreglass ones.

How about keeping the fibreglass ones, and making a spacer to space them out, between the bodywork and the flare itself.

Maybe a 2inch spacer would look okay?

yer thats prolly not a bad idea

I need to cover these suckers

do you want to cover them to make the vehicle legal? or to stop rocks etc dmging your/other cars? cause i dont think anyone will look at your flares once they see the beadlocks

Wat my prob is.. these rims stick out a mile and went i flex up it hits the flares and trys to rip em off.. so i was thinkin the bush wackers would give me a tad more clearance...

Maybe do one of those "virtual lift" jobbies on it?

ie pull the flares off, cut the arches out an inch or two, then remount the flares that 2" higher

frp in queensland do a 5 inch wide flare www.frp.com.au

what about making your own....get some urethane foam and shape it to your liking with 80 grit, then making a fibreglass flare from the foam profile you just made??? lick of paint and voila
