1983 Toytoa Pickup SR5 Fender Flares

I a about to paint my bad ass beast in Monstaliner Predator and I would like to add some burly black fender flares to complete the job. Anyone know of a place where I could find some? I have googled for hours on end and made numerous phone calls with no results.

I do think someone could get away with using second gen fender flares though. With some manipulation. I would search pirate and other forums and see if anyone's attempted it.

I've thought about using full size Chevy, Dodge, etc, fender flairs. Of course nothing would be a bolt on, you'd have to do some glass work, and finish body work. As bootscootboogie said, I've looked at 2nd gen Toyota fender flairs too. I haven't put any up to the truck to see what would, or could work though.

Contact Corey from www.toyotafiberglass.com - his user name on here is Slacker. He has a set of Bushwhacker fender flares that he is planning on reproducing in fiberglass. I'm not sure if he has made any yet, but the fiberglass bed he made for me was excellent quality.

And this guy has a set of Bushwacker flares for sale for $100. Typically people want outrageous money for them (like $400 plus) because they aren't produced anymore.

https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f109...-parts-291290/

The part numbers for the Bushwacker flares are:
Front - 31005-11
Rear - 31006-11

I don't know about Cory's repops of the bushwackers, but he does have rear flares and replacement front fenders that match each other. I know because I've been eyeballing them since I lost one of my front bushwackers going down I-90.

Thanks guys! I spoke with Cory and he was super nice and super back ordered. LOL.

Hopefully, I find some this year...but if not hopefully he is in full swing when I hit him up late this year or next.

Corey is a great guy. He's pure business, but has an unbelievable passion for these trucks and has takes good care of his customers. You buy from him and you become family - That comes directly from my personal experience with him. I will let you know this, if he's busy now, he'll be busy later. When I first discussed ordering my bed from him he was backed up about 6 months. When I finally ordered my bed he was backed up about one year and I ended up getting my bed about 9 months after I ordered it. Every since, he has been steady backed up for at least a year (that was about 2 years ago. My recommendation would be if you know you are going to order something from him, I would go ahead and order it now or you'll be waiting even longer. But like he said, he hasn't produced the molds for the flares so that all depends on whether or not he actually ends up doing the molds.
