thanks guys. they came out looking better than I thought it would. I am really happy with it. I was shopping for aftermarket rims and most of the ones I liked would stick out a little and I didn't like the look of tires sticking past the wells and I didn't want mud on the side of my truck sothis motivated me to get me some flares which I already like the look of. now I just need to deside which rims I will get. I know I want black rims. I wanted to stick with 17 inch rims but most of the rims I found I like are only made in 18 or 20 inch rims. I will probably end up going with 18"s which means I will need all new rubber which I dont have the bucks for yet. looks like I will have to wait till next summer to deside on the rims when I have enough money to do all rims and tires. so I guess next I will be getting me some of those harley headlights and a new street scene speed grill in black chrome.

Looks Great! They'ld look great on a lowered FX4 Flareside with a bit wider tire too I bet! 
Can't rust .... the rear fenders are some kind of plastic composite stuff .... 
looks like dirt will collect behind them and damage the paint and it will rust

He said they fit the "Fleetside" which I assume meant "Styleside". Ford only had 2 models in 2004-2008. Logically thinking just buy the Bushwacker fender flares for the 2004-2008 F150 4x4. This is the only part number for 2004-2008 "Styleside' that had the "fake bolt look" on the flares. Good Luck.

I did the same thing for my Street Scene body kit only listed as "style side only"!! Every thing line up with out a hitch as long as you order the right cab size .The truck beds are the same under the rocker body line and the wheel wells .Good job looks great!!!!

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.
