only thing i can think of is that mine is an 08' and yours is the newer body. I have to be pretty diligent in cleaning out any dirt collected from trails so anything to cover this up would be nice.

What about the 80 series / lx450? 
These would be a huge hit with the 80 market. I got these for my 100 and liked them so much I bought a few more sets and one for my boss’s 100. Very well made product. I’d buy at least one set for my 80 if they became available.What about the 80 series / lx450?
@Ramathorn15 Any news on these? Winter will be here shortly and I was hoping to get rid of my stock ones before it arrives.
I have a 2018 with stock bumpers. I would be interested as well.

What about the 80 series / lx450?
Would love to do an 80. Issue is finding someone willing to let me prototype. I spend a ton more time making sure everything is as perfect as can be, so it's not like a quick one day ordeal, unfortunately. Hopefully I can find one soon.
Ive got 1 kit out in the wild. Waiting for him to get time to do the install. Once that's done and presumably no major changes are needed, I'll be starting production. So hopefully a couple weeks at most.

A number of you are waiting on more photos and reports back from the T&E.
Here's a quick photo dump and a very brief summary, I'll elaborate more when I get to a computer.
Install was
Only issue was finding the time between daddy day care sessions. I did have to pick up 2 longer panhead bolts, Rami has the info already. So far there's only 40ish miles on the set with mixed road and highway miles. The gaps between the tires and flaps are tiny at full lock. DS tire rubs the KDSS the lock. In the rear the bolts on the Dissent do push the flaps marginally forward. I haven't determined if I'll cut reliefs for them or not. There is no noticeable contact between the flaps and tires. I drove in a dirt/gravel lot, both forward and reverse, and built up a nice layer of dust on them before getting on the freeway. There are no rub marks on the flaps after the drive.
You can see my 200's specs in the signature. Fire off any questions you have and I'll do my best to answer. However, 'til then, here's some pics.

Yes, it's right around 1/4" static. I was somewhat surprised to see no contact marks in the dust on them after backing with the wheels at full lock to the either side.
God willing I'll be in the local mountains this weekend and should have more for ya'll next week.

Thanks for sharing @FJRanger !!
The front flap bracket is designed so that it can be bent further back to clear larger tires. One difficulty with the 200 is that the plastic rocker actually comes out, toward the tire, as it goes into the wheel well. That portion wants to push the front flap further in towards the wheel. Those who aren't afraid of cutting away a bit of plastic and maybe hammering a bit will be able to clear very easily.

Updates? If needing a Slee rear bumper and Bp51 tester, I can help. I am in the process of fabricating some because of all the mud I go through during hunting season.

I didn't make it to the local mountain the weekend before last, work called and I had to make a trip to the north end of the state. Lots of I 5 miles with some gravel road miles inter-mixed. The flaps did their job; no new chips on the roll pans or loud dings from the gravel hitting the Dissent Rear. They also have done a great job of keep the road water/dirt off the side of the cruiser. Stoked.

Hoping to have a handful of kits ready to ship by the end of the weekend! I'll update what I'm able to get done on Sunday.
@Ramathorn15 Are you still in the testing phase and only sending these out to a pre-identified group?

I have two kits ready to go. At this point, I can really only guarantee fitment on a stock Toyota 200. @FJRanger seems to be having success with his setup, but there might still be some compromises. The LX is a bit questionable but from the photos I've seen, it should hopefully fit.
If you're still interested, let me know. I can ship them quickly. I'll likely sell these two sets at a discounted rate.
PM sent sir.
