Checked out the gold valley trail last weekend near Downieville CA and took a few detours up some gnarrley side trails. Deer lake and snake lake were quite interesting. They were very tight in a few spots and the drivers rear flare took a hard hit. Expected some serious damage to the qtr panel but instead the flare absorbed it all and no damage to any metal. I swear the flare saved the metal.
2 things:
These flares can take much more abuse than the stock flares and I can replace it when I totally break it.
