Cut-out Flares
I was considering those cut-out flares from bushwacker. I love the look, but, I don't want to cut my fender up. I won't mind drilling holes. Has anyone put these on? Do they require you remove sheetmetal? I would stillput them on if it could be done without cutting.
thanks

More to come I'm sure.

It's been quite a few years since I've had them on a truck... but You do need to cut. There purpose is to increase the wheel well opening and to provide coverage for larger tires.
Bushwacker and others such as xenon make flares that do not require cutting. They are not as agressive looking as the cut outs.
