Why Upgrade to Steel Fender Flares?

Factory plastic fender flares crack, fade, and break on the trail. When you upgrade to larger tires for better off-road performance, stock flares often don't provide adequate coverage—leaving you with potential legal issues and exposed body panels. These heavy-duty carbon steel flares solve both problems: they're virtually indestructible and provide the extra coverage needed for serious tire upgrades.
