    Gotta do what you got to do-
    I bought my 2019 platinum with 21k miles off the lot as a 2 yr. lease return(I was told) and the previous owner put the flares on and I assume had rims and tires but when I acquired the vehicle it had the stock "pizza cutter" rims and looked silly IMO.
    So naturally I had to put more substantial tires on ;-)
    I like the color match look for the flares and am leaning toward painting them once I go with the AMP running boards.

    I recently purchased a 2019 that had flares and I removed them but as you'd expect they have lines on the paint. Has anyone been successful in removing the lines with wet sanding and buffing? I have stock wheels so I think the flares are silly looking for a stock setup.

    I had flares on my white 16 but on the 21, I fit 35’s under there that barely poke out the edge of the fender and it looks sexy. I like the ability of the fake tits lol. Put some nice tires on there and it will look super sexy.

    No. Where I come from I see fender flares and all I can think of is the rusted out wheel wells they are covering up.

    He talks more about it here. Appears they were on E-bay at one point - https://www.tundras.com/threads/best-fender-flares-for-2017-tundra.81986/#post-2093216


    I like them and would have continued trying to locate a set, however, found another forum posting where someone mentioned installing them requires permanent removal of the mud flaps and that was a non starter for me.
