Maybe I am wrong but are the beds alike at the bottoms of the body's say to add cab and bed side skirts .Some web sites don't say anything some say all but flare side and I know ebay always gets mixed up on F-150 info.I cant find a set just for a Flareside 04-08 Thanks

He may be referring to the wheel well flares.

Oh ..... I see now.

My first thought is the beds are probably enough alike at the lower edges that it'll work, but there may be some minor differences like maybe behind the rear wheel towards the rear bumper? Might be a good idea to take your digital camera and phot a 6.5 foot Styleside bed undereneath (Ford lot?) and take same photos same positions of your Flareside and compare?

Might also look at those skirts your interested in and look for a link to "instalation instructions" and open and save to a file and read it very closely. Once you fully understand how they mount, then you can better determine if they are workable on your Flareside.

Pics afterwards if you do it!

I have looked many times l cant see a difference at the bottom panels the kits are way over priced for what they are l dont need a front spoiler have the Roush or dont want a roll pan back some kits tapers up after the back tire. I would order the roush but its made for sideout ex tips mine run out the back .l put on a full roush suspension and just some decent side skirts needed to compleat the look l want.
