Front flares on or off?

I took my front flares off a week or so ago because I'm about to clean up the body panel cut lines to be smoother but now that they've been off for a while I think the flareless look is starting to grow on me. Maybe I'll think of a "quick release" mounting system for the flares so I can take them off on the tighter trails easily. They currently use 7 bolts and to mount and I was thinking 3 pins could easily hold them in place while being removable easily.

The rear flares are out of the question because I'm gathering material at the moment for my flatbed project.

 

It might be helpful to post a pic with flares off?


I think it would look like a VW Baja bug with front flares off, and rear flares left on.

 

The Instagram phot doesn't show up? I have the original photo on my phone but I'm on my laptop and it was easier to just use the IG photo instead of transferring the file.

I'm not concerned about the rear because I'm building a custom flatbed so the flares are going on the trash.

 

@Spvrtan I would like to have these flares, how much cutting is involved? Can you post close up pics of what's cut on Tundra, front n rear please

 

LOL - is this flares on or flares off?
I thought they were on, but looking closer I’m guessing it’s just the outline from pulling your old flares off?



If that’s the case, then post a pic with them on.

 

You have to cut a ton of the body panels out. Take a closer look at the photo and you'll see the rough cuts I made for the front flares. You then have to drill 8-9 holes into the body for each flare to mount. I'll try and take more photos later.
