Ohhh boy, ok, adobe bumpers it is. I guess the new rims will determine if I end up with new flares.

When are you planning on lifting your rig? 6 inch will be sweet
You could always just drill into your new flares and sell your old ones cheap? I'm planning on lifting my truck as soon as my girlfriend gives me the ok . My shocks up front are starting to go so maybe I can use that as my leverage in getting a lift kit . Most likely have to wait till the summer though

I'm just worried about trying to line up holes or half hitting a old hole and the flaps won't hold anymore, bah, I always overthink...

Have someone hold your new flares on while you mark all the holes with a marker, then drill all the holes out and everything "should" line up lol

Ford Body shop or any reputable body shop in your area. I'd call your insurance agent and ask them for a list of approved vendors for your area if you don't have an existing relationship with one.
