I think that is a rear fender flair on a front fender. I zoomed in on those pics and that girl is rough!!!!

If that is a rear fender flare, he certainly no longer has a need for one!

I didn't look at the plate but it could be registered as a Farm Truck which is exempt from annual safety inspection. Its been orange tagged by the police so it must have been there more than 2 days.

Hi Guys,

I'm new here. I came across a 'Dentside' and a 'Bumpside' truck. I understand de Dentside truck.
Now do I also see Dentside trucks with and without trim. Is that due to the different trim levels? So a dentside in Custom is without a trim and a XLT is with a trim? I share my truck with a Dentside, but without the trim. I was wondering if this is original or not. I understand that it is not simple and expensive to put a trim in the dent.



My truck with Dentside, without trim.


Is this also a dentside, but with trim due to another trim level?

Yes... that is a dent side also. And since it is a CUSTOM, the original owner ordered the "racetrack" trim to go in "the dent"

Explorers and Rangers had extra trim. The Rangers had all the trim available.
