    I’ve been eyeballing this style for my 2021 CM. The seller has a 94% rating though. Another version has bolts which I prefer but they aren’t available for anything above a 2017.

    Very nice Tundra. Do you happen to have a photo of the side view? I like the white letters out but can’t see it clearly. Thanks.

    I like the looks of your truck. What size wheels/tires do you have? Are those TSS wheels? Thanks to let me know.

    I don't mean to question your information, but when I enter 18" Fuel Pump wheels on DT's website and a 5-150 bolt pattern, it automatically kicks me up to 20" wheels?....Post Edit: I understand now. I checked Fuel's website and think I found the 18" wheel with 5-150 bolt pattern. D.T. must not carry this size.

    Yikes. That's practically a one way flight to the mainland!

    I did reach out to them again because I am investigating re-shippers and freight forwarders to Canada. The shipping box is approximately 50" x 29" x 9 and weighs about 15 lbs.

    @paulbk Thank you man! I've had them on my truck since early december or so and so far they've been great. I bought the ones linked earlier in this thread (not EAG) and have had no fading or fitment issues so far. That's a bummer to read some of the stuff about the EAG ones though.

    When installing, I did "loosly" install all bolts and then adjust it as needed to get the best fitment before tightening all the way. I did the same with the Bushwackers I had before these. Luckily the mudflap screw hardware tends to bite well no matter what angle.

    Man!!! I've been staring at your truck for the last hour!!! I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on the tow mirrors!! :spending:

    it's interesting that the flares you purchased work well and the EAG ones did not.
    the original link uses some of the same pics from the EAG listing. Although many sellers recycle pics!

    I wonder if there truly is a difference or not or if quality control is the issue.. OR BOTH?

    Do it!! The tow mirrors are pretty great.

    But I hear you about the two brands. Given ebay I would think they are exactly the same to be honest... maybe in a year or so theyve improved? Or time will tell with mine in regards to fading at least.

    @junior I bought a set of the same flares you did from ebay. They fit ok but there are some pretty good gaps where they do not set tight against the fender. I tried to get some help from the seller on ebay but they have only been frustrating are giving me the run around pretty bad. I may send them back if I cannot get them looking better. Which is a bummer cause they look great from 20 ft away. Up close they look super cheap though. Any tips you have for me? Thanks

    @70 FJ40 sorry to hear that man, where exactly are you having gaps? Mine are pretty snug, though I believe along one of the rear ones I had to finesse it a bit more than the others along the rear most curve. One thing to try would be replacing the rubber seals they come with that are "U" shaped for one thats more of a wiper shape like Bushwacker includes. These might span the gap better... but still not ideal: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CRMWR7H

    Thanks for the tip. I'll order that up and see if it helps. I have probably close to a 1/4 gap at the top middle of the front left flare. The right rear flare also has a couple gaps. One in the front and one towards the back. Both spots are where the body line is pretty flat. I've tried manipulating them by pushing tight the flare while tightening bolt and even added washers in the back as shims but nothing seems to help. I've requested from the seller that they replace these 2 flares with ones that are hopefully not warped. We'll see what happens.
