Sorry Rob, been extremely busy last couple of days. Looks like the right part#. Though those flares are a little different than mine only because I have an '05 150.

thanks everyone!. hOrs3 pOw3r your truck is HOT!! thats what mine is going to look like with the black wheels tinted front window and black tool box. and just black everything except the color of the truck itself. so i think the black fender flares will look good on it as well.

Thanks, yeah that's the look I am going for. I have a black 08 bumper on the way to get rid of that ugly chrome. Then I want to save up for one of those Road Armor front bumpers but they're expensive.

If you haven't purchased already, this is what I posted on another site recently.

This actually pertains to all trucks, not just the diesels. Your results may vary, but this is what I did.

Contact your local dealer with whom you have a good relationship with. Inquire with whom they use for body work or paint work, usually they will give you a name of a person to talk to with whom you can throw the dealers name at.

Call the recommended paint shop and ask for the individual whom the dealer recommended and mention so-n-so said you should call them. Inquire with the paint shop that your looking to purchase some Bushwacker fender flares and want to have them painted but would like to know of a 4wheelparts or similar that they obtain parts from. They will probably also provide you with a name with whom you should talk to.

Call the 4wheelparts shop or parts shop they recommend and ask for the individual whom the paint shop recommended and like above, mention so-n-so said you should call them. Chances are, because the paint shop deals with this parts center, you will get a pretty good price, or a better price then if you went there direct.

To make a long story short, I got a full set of OE Fender Flares, the ones that stick out about 1-1/2in, for $355 out the door. Buying them straight from 4WheelParts will run you about 455 +tax.

So the moral of this story...you never know unless you ask.

received the OEM style from Prestige tonight. WICKED fast shipping! put the driver's side front on tonight, will post pics next week when i'm done with all four wheels.
using rust bullet on the wheel wells and the slight rusting on the front fenders that started. these flares are wide so they cover very well. VERY tight fit.

So, here's some pictures of the Fender Flares installed on my truck. As you can see, I had them painted to match.







Gotta say, I really like the way they turned out.
