One piece fender flare

Anybody have a lead on where I can find a drivers side front fender flare? It's for a 2005 that I unfortunately got too up close and personal with a bollard in parking lot...
90% of them that I see are the 2 piece varieties that attach to the fender. Mine is the one piece that bolt from underneath. Bonus points for one that's silver so I don't have to paint it!

 

Have you plugged your vin into the EPC to get the part number? It may also be stamped onto the back of that flare. Come to think of it, that flare appears aftermarket - OEM have a separate piece over the bumper IIRC

 

LKQ online or ebay are going to be your best bet. I bet you can find a replacement in good condition that is color-matched.

 

EPC?

 

That style of flair, IIRC, is only used on the X-SP badged trucks, and must be ordered directly from the Toyota entity that produced your one-off vehicle.

If so-badged, with X-SP badges, your truck (if I understood others here and at other forums correctly) will have two VINs, it's possible both are on the driver's door, below the opening for the door latch. If not, they may be in the driver's door jamb. You would need to supply those numbers to whoever supplied the truck, like Southeast Toyota (SET) or if it was, say, a Lucchese edition you'd contact Gulf States Toyota (GST) I think. They can get you the replacement parts.

I think there may be some members on here who've taken theirs off, maybe @912 ? You may be able to obtain from them. Otherwise, you're hitting junkyards or fleaBay looking for "X-SP fender driver" or similar.

 

XSP is indeed SET(south east toyota).
As for @912 Brian, he took flares off in order to paint them and then put them back on.



He better not ever let me know he’s selling or I’ll be on first plane out where ever he is.

 

Well that's strange. Mine has the cloth interior and the SR5 badges. I was pretty sure the XSPs all had leather? I still see plenty of XSP badges running around town so I'll try to pay attention to their flares. I bought mine used a long time ago from Toyota of Orlando and while they said "no accidents" mine was missing the 4WD emblem on the tailgate and had been repainted (overspray here and there). If I remember correctly from looking it over one of the fenders or doors is missing the matching VIN number tag. My guess is it was in a minor accident with no reporting. I just dumped the VIN into one of the online checking sites and it did say it was an SR5. I also removed the damaged flare at one point and I don't have the holes in the fender for mounting the 2 piece flares.

 

Just checked - only one VIN

 

As you said, it may've gotten removed during replacement or body work. But the location - FL - is one of a couple states where SET pushed out lots of these trucks, and IIRC, the person you'd need to talk to at SET to get replacements, since Toyota won't sell directly, is up in Jacksonville or Ft Lauderdale.

X-SP is not leather-only, they usually took SR5 pickups and added popular features to them to make it more attractive to buyers. If the truck had been repainted for some reason, or debadged by a previous owner, as the absence of badges suggests (it's a popular mod), you can't source new X-SP badges as easily as you can get SR5 badges, so that's a very simple explanation.

We went through this rodeo before with one or two other members. I, or one of the other forum members, was able to dig up the contact info to reach out. Absence of a second ID/VIN somewhere isn't necessarily indicative of "not an XSP", and now I'm wishing I'd saved the picture of the strip-style sticker I found showing what someone was talking about. There was another ID sticker somewhere on the vehicle that was required to get SET to cough up replacement body parts.

 

Would XSP show up on a VIN search? Mine shows up as SR5. And WHY would Toyota even have two styles of fender flares? Nobody (unless they're looking for one like I am) would ever have any clue that most were 2 pieces. Not to mention somewhere along the lines there was something different on the manufacturing line where they punched holes in the fenders of 90% of these trucks. When it all said and done it really doesn't look different. What's the point?

 

My understanding, as we didn't get any of those packages on the west coast, is that XSP was offered as an upgrade on top of whatever package you already got from the factory. Different fender flares and badging, etc, they would have slapped the secondary VIN stickers on at the same time. From what I've read on here, the distributor that has all those parts is really strict about only selling them to owners of trucks that had the package added on. Can't have any counterfeit XSPs driving around. The original Toyota VIN AFAIK has nothing to do with looking up these packages, as they were an add on for the dealers.

Best bet is to keep looking for any additional numbered stickers on the truck and see if Shifty can find the contact info for getting the official replacement parts. There is always the chance that it wasn't an XSP and someone managed to get their hands on the one piece fender flairs and stuck them on, if that's the case you'll either need to find someone with a real one to order the parts for you or start hitting junk yards looking for them.

 

Different strokes for different folks.

XSP was a strictly cosmetic package offered by SET with leather seats, 20inch wheels/BFG tires, big flares and badging. They offered similar XSP packages on other Models and for Tundra at least through Gen2.5 trucks. Not sure about Gen3 Tundras as I’ve never seen one.

 

No. X-SP isn't a factory thing. It's a regional porting option with different body styling, and options added after-the fact.

As it should. They used SR5, the lower end trucks, threw some options at them, rebadged them as being eXtra SPecial, in hopes people would bite.

Would you buy a truck with eXtra SPecial badging and pricing, if it looked like a regular SR5 with a few extra features?

The one-piece flares are held on with doublesided tape, so no holes needed. They just use the OEM fender-flareless DC fenders. DC came with and without fender flares. There are two factory parts, one for each.

What's always the point: $$$$$

Actually shit, I forgot. @Dakillacore in that other thread you mentioned parts being VIN-locked. How would @Gnarbrah find out if he has a VIN with access to those parts?

 

VIN locked parts are generally tied with the TRD models and the xsp packages are generally regional packages.

If I can get their full vin then I can look up on my Toyota system to see if it lists the packages that the truck was sold with. This would be tomorrow when I'm back at my work PC though

 

A lot of the time those regional/dealer installed accessories become discontinued.

 

Damn that's a lot of info! I'm still not sold that mine was ever an XSP. Why would they change out the badging to SR5? All the XSPs I've seen have leather an I think burl wood trim inside? I know they're easily changed but they also had nice 20" wheels. Here's a pic of mine shortly after I bought it in 2016. It only had 45k on the odometer and it had 16" (NOT 17") wheels. Guess I'll just keep my eyes open and worse comes to worse at least it's silver so duct tape might blend right in!

 

PM me your vin if you want and I'll look it up tomorrow. It'll tell me if it sold with the package or not though the Toyota system (tech stream/TIS)

 

Coming your way - thanks!

 

So after much digging I found some information for you @Gnarbrah . I am waiting on a college to let me know if the parts are still able to be ordered, or if they are actively discontinued (which is highly possible as most regional packages / dealer installed accessories are).

I'm not too confident that yours was ever a fully sold with the X-SP package because it is missing a lot of the additional items like the leather seats that you mention along with the wheels, running boards, skid plate and so on. Your Tundra's previous owner(s) could have added these flares on later down the line for aesthetic reasons.

Your Tundra seems to have spent it's life down in Florida and is part of the SET (Southeast Toyota) conglomerate. I'm not sure if the X-SP is part of all the regions, or just the SET region.

 

Thanks for digging! Always neat to get some history. I still find it strange that someone would have added these particular flares and nothing else. Did they actually sell these with no flares? Don’t know if I’ve ever seen that. And do the one piece really look any different than the two piece? Weird. Well I’ve lived with a busted flare for a couple years so I guess I’ll just keep an eye out.

 

My contact confirmed that these flares are discontinued, unfortunately. You'll either have to go used/ebay or just replace them with the 2 piece kit. He also confirmed that per the VIN, these are the part numbers for the flares that were supposed to come on your Tundra. 75085-0C050 / 75086-0C050.

 

Honestly though, the 2 piece kit is better if you ever have to remove the bumper cover. At least you wont risk breaking the flares upon removal.

The 1 piece flare does look better though. In my opinion.

 

Really appreciate the help. Not sure how keen I am on drilling holes in my fenders to install the two piece version. Guess I’ll just keep checking online and junk yards.

 

You won't need to drill any holes as you already have them there for your existing flares. I believe that the only difference in the flares is the separation part. Both flare versions should line up with the holes that are already there.

 

My understanding is that the one piece flares were attached with double sided tape rather than clips through the fender because they were locally modified SR5 trucks.

 

I think what @Dakillacore is saying is, the VIN is coming back as an SR5, and if so, there's a solid chance it already has the SR5 hole-punched fenders, they just taped the X-SP flares over them. I can't answer the question about the smaller bumper part of the flare though.
