And I cut my stock flares and if you keep the understructure just cut it to work with the stock flare you don't have to worry about integrity it is still strong won't rip of in the wind. They don't sag or anything.

ACE. 685 for the set of 4. Bullet proof, easy to install. Looks awesome.

I am running the river raider flares, had the color matched with line x. Install was easy, just had to drill holes for some extra nutserts. They survived my rollover with no damage or bending. I would recommend them

Poison Spyder and Metalcloak both make nice metal flares. Ace is a lot cheaper, but the rear flairs don't fit the curve of the wheel wells right. Here's the Ace flairs on my Rubi...

I really like the Gen Right, PSC, and Metalcloak.

Ace are the best deal. I currently have Xenon. May upgrade someday. I got a killer deal on used Xenon's. Got them used for $150.

Agreed. It looks fairly flat where you were. Should be an interesting tale!
