    Just got my first Tundra.
    Any suggestions on the best fender flares out there?
    Looking for black matte and don’t want any that will fade and look bad.
    Thanks

    Do not get bushwhacker. They don’t fit right and will scratch your truck. I got some RDJ off Amazon after I threw away the bushwhacker ones. OEM ones look good too but I’m not sure if they come in matte black.

    I have had multiple sets of the OEM / Bushwacker fender flairs.

    They seem to fit exactly like they should, with my Sequoia and Land Cruiser they seem to be a bit more challenging to install since there actually 6 piece for those vehicles.

    The Tundra flairs were pretty simple and took maybe 30 min to install. You can buy these from Toyota South or through a southern region Toyota dealer.
    The Toyota/OEM fender flairs are one in the same as the Bushwacker flairs. Bushwacker makes the OEM flairs for the Toyota Southern distribution . IE if I call an Oklahoma Toyota dealer they can get them for me where if I call a Kansas Toyota dealer they cant find even find them in the parts breakdown and don't have access to them. It's a regional distribution thing, No Tundra actually gets them factory installed, many in the south get them port installed by the distributor for that region and they will show up on the window sticker when that happens.

    All fender flairs are prone to rub on the fenders which can lead to paint issues, there are some preventative measure that can be taken to help with that like the clear protective films can help protect the paint.
