Pre-Runner Fenders Back On Or Not?

Well I have a friend that is starting a small body shop and he will paint and fix my bumper and everything for cheap. He asked if I still had those fenders and of course I do.

So my question. You think I should have them painted and put back on or leave it stock?

I vote on. They look good, especially painted to match.

Thanks guys I think I am going to have him paint them. If I change my mind then I can always swap the stock ones back on!

full lifted trucks and fenders look bad, exact opposite of what there for. allowing travel with minimal lift so u keep the center of gravity low and haul across the desert.

Keep them on, it ties the back in with the front, and looks really good.

If you have the suspension travel to actually make them useful, then put them on, if not then sell em to someone and make some cash off of them.

off. you dont have the travel to need them and i think they just look funny unless you have a wider track from a LT kit or somethin.

After going out and looking at my truck I dont think I am going to do it. But I am getting the tailgate shaved with a relocation handle on the inside and maybe getting the ranger emblems shaved off too.
