I like them too, it looks much better in person with the flares than without. Only thing I dont like is the fender opening is smaller

I think this worked out for the best. The styleside will work out better for you then it did for me and now I have the bed I originally wanted.

Looks good Zach. I wish mine still looked that clean!

One question for you tho... Any reason for not moving you axle forward? Looks like it might hit the back of the fender when you flex it.

It was an error on my part. I really cant move it forward much because of some other brackets. i could get a half inch or maybe an inch total but I just didnt realize it was that far off until i put the tires on. I am a bit frustrated about it, but with limited time its going to stay like that until after the dunes I believe.

thanks for the comments guys!
