I've been told that the next set will be ready by Thursday. As soon as I ship the first set I will post up the next set with more detailed shipping information.

Sheesh, I don't know if I could justify spending 700 for them. I have been watching your thread on MUD and I am very interested in them though. Are you going to auction every set or sell for a set set price at some point?

I understand the frustration. I watched for Bushwhacker to introduce 80 series pocket flares for years. I wrote them several times. How great would it be to buy a set of these for $400-500? I would have bought some for sure if it would have been that easy.Originally Posted by thatcabledude
That won't be the situation and I can't afford to sell the flares for $700. These flares are hand made one set at a time and I need to make enough money back to justify my investment of time and money. The next auction will start at a price higher than $700. My goal right now is to make enough money to cover my costs. After I do that, if there is still interest I will continue to sell them, but my cost per set is high and selling a set for less than $1000 does not make it worth it for me.

The 2nd set is listed with shipping to anywhere in North or South America.

The current set of flares are satin black. I'll get pictures of the flares in the new color up soon. Here is the current set at a lower price. Shipping isn't cheap, but local pick up in San Antonio or Austin would be free.
Still looking like the end of summer for the first set of 93-97 style flares, but they are coming along.
Observer
93-97 flares are now available. They are like the 91-92 flares made from fiberglass and flexible resin. Also, the trim gaskets are now OEM style made from ozone resistant EPDM rubber and use 3M tape on the inside edge. I've been providing trim gaskets kits as a stand alone. PM me for details...

I hope you are gaining interest with these so that the price point becomes better for you and us. I would love to ditch the stock units on my LX450, but have been told the work involved is sound mind prohibitive.

Thank you for commenting. I just sold my only available 93-97 set, but will have another set available in a week or so. I currently have a 91-92 set available. When I have a set listed on ebay it will be for $750 due to the additional selling costs, but if someone on the forum contacts me I will accept $650.

They look a bit Jeep-ish, no?
Observer
Do you think Jeeps look rugged yet modern? If so then I would say yes along with Dodge trucks, Ford trucks, GMC trucks, and other Toyota trucks since they are all running around with pocket flare modifications that help cover their tires with a durable solution. If you think Jeeps, Dodge trucks, Ford trucks, Chevy trucks and other Toyota trucks look like sissy trucks then I would say no, but thank you for your sincere cogitation in asking the question.
