Why are fender flares so expensive?

OEM-style Fender Flare Set Ford Ranger 98 99 00 01 02 : eBay Motors (item 300367836501 end time Mar-16-10 1043 PDT)

This has been the cheapest set i have found online. Its just hard plastic.... Anyone know where i can find a set cheaper?Already tried junkyards and nothing, so I'm stumped.

The junkyard won't let you have them off a good bed or fender so its hard to find a whole set. I have some but not sure how many and the condition.

I love how they dont even post a pic of said flare so you have no idea if it's a 93-00 style or something else.

If that's what you're looking for, check this:

and what do u know, your truck is the same color!
