Duh, what was I thinking! Well either way, don't enter your VIN and just search under 4.8's within the same model range and go from there.

Look good...
That's the way the fender flares looks no additional parts for the front bumper.

So the fender flare just sticks out like that and the bumper doesn't even have a way to blend up to it w/ a nice radius or anything?

I didn't realize they overlapped the old ones...I thought they we're complete replacements. So since you don't have running boards, do that always terminate parallel to the fender marker light? If that's the case, if I ever decide to do this mod, I'm definately going to get the running boards at the same time.

PS - I'd replace those screws w/ either black ones or hit them w/ a sharpie. Great shine on the paint BTW.

if you ever decide to do this mod,You definately need to check with realoem.com for the correct parts for the running boards .
BTW those screws was just temporaly to hold the trim in place while i drilling holes.
