Bushwacker flares on a stepside?
I'm just wondering if anyone has seen flares on a step side truck??? I've only seen a couple pictures with them on.. and they only had them on the front.
Basically, I was wondering if anyone has seen them in person and what they thought? Does it look weird because of the stepside bed?

I found it .... Jason posted pics and someinfo on his install of Bushwackers on his Red FX4 Flareside (stepside) sometime back, I thought it looked really GREAT! Below is the opening post in that thread and a link to the thread under it. I ment to save it .... will do so now myself.

well I added some bushwacker fender flares to my truck this weekend. as some of you may know bushwacker dosn't sell fender flares designed for our trucks in a flareside. well I have seen that the fleetsides had the same arch as my flareside so I desided to take a gamble and buy ne a set of some designed to fit the fleetside bed. I found a great deal on ebay and bought me a set. when I got them I found out they almost fit perfect but have a gap just above the steps and needed to be trimmed in a arch to alow the gas cover to open and close. then I desided to trim the aria from the step down to help reduce the gap just above the step. this trimming took alot of work and is optional as it will fit without the trimming. after that I had to relocate the mounting holes under the flares because the flares sit a little further in on the fender than on a fleetside. but it all came to gether and fits great. heres some pics.

They look great! I'm also planning to purchase Bushwacker fender flares for my 2002 Ford F-150 King Ranch Crew Cab.
