found a 4.6 body kit for 760.00

i found a body kit for 760.00 with out pait and shipping. its just the additions for the bumpers.

the fender flares are all 4 for 800.00

Prices sound about right. Make sure you're getting all the pieces. Here's the DIY from the front page for the 4.6 front and rear parts. Though it does have info. on the flares there too.

For the flares, I would check here too - especially if you have or are considering running boards:

$760.00 for the kit go for it.That's the best price you can find
Fenders flares $800 is about right but I have a set for the rear will let it goes for $400.00

Sorry!

Simple answer is No.

Normally 4.6 comes with only rear flares. You can buy the front flares and install them too so you have both.

However, if you are CONSIDERING putting on RBs then better to buy the RBs and install them now with the flares.

Why? Because the flares are DEPENDENT on if you have RBs or not. There are different part#s for flares with or w/o RBs.

If you do the RBS now, you won't have to worry about paying for ANOTHER set of flares for the RBs in the future.

How about now ... is that better?

BTW Rabbit ... I ASSUMED the $800 was for BOTH front & rear flares. If its just for the rears, then better snag this great deal from mrbmwX5 for $400.

TP.$800.00 they give him is just for the rear. Two fenders flares and two rear bumper supports = $800.00
The front one cost about $500.00 for left and right.
That will come out some where about $1300.00

Thanks, I realize that. Thats why I said for him to take your deal IF the $800 does not incl. the front flares. That's why I specifically said to check he has the right parts. Who knows maybe the $800 is for the front and rear wheel arches only but doesn't include the rear bunper support trim. My point is we don't know and that he should check exactly what he's getting for whatever price.

When I read that I translated it as "flares for all 4 wheels" not as "4 pieces of flares for the rear only" initially. Then I said to double-check what he's getting along with better think about installing RBS now along with the flares.
