Bushwacker Fender Flares for FJ Cruiser

[abophx]

The guy over on the blue site will have "real" pics up today sometime.
He has already mentioned too that they are running 35" tires on the FJ, and these flares do increase not decrease wheel well space as some had thought over there.

I am not into the fake rivet thing for the flares though.
I like them on fake beadlocks, but I like flares without them.

I would have liked to have seen just a wider version of what we have now on the FJs.

Picture: Nissan Frontier, I didn't buy a Nissan so why do I want it to look like a Nissan product.......My .02

Check out the thread "Portland Area FJ Cruiser Owners." You'll never find another deal like this on these fender flares.

Here they are from Perf's catalog.
Someone over on fjcruiserforums scanned it in.

Holy Hell, I thought we had tuperware on the vehicle because it was "cheap" to replace! Do they sell them individually in case one gets crumpled??

They are a little pricey....I had the cut-out fender wall type on my 85 Toy, I want to say they were half the price of what they are quoting for an FJ.

Ugly

I'm not diggin these at all. Even if you could run these with the safari snorkel, it would look even worse. The snorkel looks sweet with the factory fender flares. Way overpriced too.

I second that "ugly"

I think the gravy train tax is a bit high on those! they look nice I think, a bit "Jeep-y". A lot of modded Jeeps run those pocket style flares.

That is a good point about per-piece cost as wheeling replacements...

Anyone make a tube style fender flare for a FJ Cruiser. Or anything other than plastic. Seems like they could be done f/r.

All these BIG companies that make the aftermarket stuff are charging way to much . you can get bushwacker flares for other vehicles between 200.00-300.00 the fj is new and popular so they charge more.the same goes for most of the fab shops if its popular charge more is their moto. look at the sand rail industry two years ago you could get a kick a$$ rail for 55,000.00 now that same rail will cost you 100 grand. I get an industry report and the sand rail industry said they have peaked on sales in fact this year was a dip in sales and they predict a bigger dip next year. lower the price and make your profit in quantity ...oops Im straying off topic. I just made a tube bumper for the front of my fj and after I finish the back tube bumper I'm going to make tube flares that tie into the rock rails. sorry for the long post this cost thing gets my blood boiling

I'd like to see some pics of your bumpers and flares. I'd like to replace the plastic fender flares with something else, but I don't want to drastically alter the look like those bushwacker ones do. Also, I need them to be compatible with a Snorkel.

Sold my FJ a while ago. Just realized I never posted a pic on this thread while I was looking through for some old pics I had.
