City bus fender flares?

[Exploderpilot]

the one i put the pic up of seems like it would be way up out of the way. not much to bang into stuff, except when you scrape against a wall or something. and now that i think back to my one truckhaven run,.......bad idea......i almost popped a window out in the tunnel.....

Well I got one on... they will look better after they curve down a bit. They are shipped rolled together and were pretty flat right out of the box.

I get some more pics when they are all on & settled in.

I think the 3" ones might look better though...

Sweeet they look AWESOME! Far better than I would have expected.... Which ones did you end up getting and did you get 4 pieces or the 25' roll?

For the money, they can't be beat

You can cut a V-notch or two out of the back to make them curve a little better, but I was working around the guy putting in the new axles & just wanted to get them on & check 'em out.

I got the 4 piece kit, extra wide 4.5" heavy duty.

I think I will order the 3" ones with the steel rod in them, then I can shape them

Chris you may want to try a heat gun to round them out.

Looks pretty cool.

Here's a few pics of the flares installed. I think they look really good, they could be curved a little more but that's mostly from my lazy install.

All in all, these things saved me a ton of money compaired to the Bushwacker ones

not as happy with my new Dixon Bros. CV's though... blew one up today while testing the new mods... :fire:

 

[FROADER]

Those do look really good Chris. Sorry to hear about the CV though. Will it be fix byu next week?! Also, how do you like those tires?

I have trimmed my front fenders and would need to re-weld a new lip in place...

Just hammer & dolly a new lip on your fenders. It would be way easier than trying to weld on a new lip. Plus it will make it more rigid/stronger as well.

I bought a set of the Pacer flares awhile back after I cut my fenders but I cut out too much and if I made a lip for them to mount on they would be too high for my liking so I said screw it

[SIRIUS198]

If you find a bus prep shop, they have it. Up here the place is Hoekstra Truck Equipment, they do a lot of the school buses and city buses too. I'm sure there is someone closer, maybe they can refer you? CLICK ME

If you meant the flares on the rear of that bus, it looks like a Grand Marquis- and a large concentration of them can be found here: CLICK ME
