I have purchased a set of black Lariat Fender Flares off of ebay and can't figure how the existing ones come off. Do I need to cut the plastic push screws and just buy some new ones for the new flares? Or is there a trick togetting them off? It is a 2006 F150 FX4. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks to all.

 

They actually have a tool for it, it looks like a screwdriver with a cutout in it. They use it on interiors to take door panels off. Any auto parts store should have it, and it is only about 3 bucks. Good Luck!

 

Hmm I need to get those painted flares also, so im giong to be in same boat soon! Did you buy it from a company or a private seller? Im thinking maybe calling dealer and getting price that way.

 

anyone who can post the part numbers so I can get them form www.getfordparts.com will be hailed as a legend! (sorry to hijack post )

 

So i emailed getfordparts and they said they come not painted, wtf is this bs man.... They are painted on the trucks lol! damit

 

Buy these and paint them.These aren't mine, but I got my OEM flares from Ebay.I got lucky and found the color I needed.

I purchased mine off ebay for $70 for all four. They were off a black lariat and matched my 06 FX4 perfectly. I took them to the local body shop and they took the stocks off and put these on for $40. When I checked with the shop before I found these they told me $600 to order a smooth set and have them painted.

 

anyone that sees some black ones on ebay hit me up, I suck at searching ebay

 

Someone chipped out a nice small spot in one of mine most likely with a door. I had to use a paint brush to build it up with primer and then wet sand with 2000 and then blend in with rattle can paint. What a pain in the *** but its fixed.

At least they are not too expensive on Ebay.
