ADV Flares

[TheLawnDart]

I’m pretty sure there’s a few people on here that ordered these, and just saw the first picture of them on a real Raptor and not CGI.

Those are some good pics, here is the video...

Can’t believe I missed that. I need to step up my game!

They look nice but they don’t look like they cover the entire width of the tire and they would need some good protection to mitigate trail damage of the fiberglass.

Agreed, our OEM break away flares seem well engineered to mitigate any fender or paint damage that would require a body shop visit.
In the video they said the 7.5" (same width as OEM) flared fenders are in development, those in the photo and video are the 4.5".

I look forward to seeing the 7.5’s once produced!

 

[Johnny Rebel]

I’ve got the 7.5’s on order. Was told this week I should see them in September, so fingers crossed!

 

[Wizz]

I to have the 7.5" fenders on order. I was told they won't be available until October.

 

[Johnny Rebel]

Got a couple of big boxes delivered to the office today. I was tired of waiting on the 7.5" fenders after a few delays in delivery estimates, so pulled the trigger on the 4.5" fenders after seeing them installed on the Raptor. Ordered them last Friday and they delivered today.

I'll post up more pics after I have a chance to remove approximately 700 shipping staples from the box and actually get to the fenders....

Yes! I’ve been waiting for someone to jump in first! Thank you!

Glad to help out! I’ve had my eye on them since ADV announced them. Since they’re part of a bigger (re)build project, it’ll take a few weeks before they actually get installed.

I’ll get some pics of the raw fenders posted up this weekend.

Here’s a pic of a rear fender. I’ll unwrap one of the fronts and post it when I get a few minutes.

Got an email from ADV yesterday that had a pic of the new 4.5" fenders installed on a customer's truck. I like it.

Here’s some videos of a dude I know getting the 7.5” installed. From ADV: they are meant to mirror OEM, just one piece. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0Pp88DyM6m/?igshid=MzY1NDJmNzMyNQ==

The fronts look really good to me. I'm also interested to see what the rear 7.5" looks like, but so far haven't seen any pics of those installed.

Just got my 7.5" kit installed and back from ADV today and heading into paint this week. From talking to John at ADV, mine is the 2nd one they have done so far and there is a high demand for the 7.5" kit. Glass looks pretty good and should look even better after paint prep and paint of course, will post some after shots. I'm also adding some 1.5" RPG perch collars and new ADD bomber bumpers at the same time. Also note that my Tires are 38" Nitro Ridge Grapplers for reference.

I can’t wait to see those after they are painted, they look awesome! Would love to know the total cost out the door from purchase, shipping, install and paint.

It’s not cheap lol, but yeah I will total it all up and provide a break down with pics next week! Cheers

If possible, could you shoot a pic from inside the wheel well to show how they connected the lower valence to the fender? Mine are getting installed right now and the body shop was having trouble getting the plastic valence bracket to fit in the fender, so wanted to see if ADV modified anything to make it fit. Thanks!

I can’t at the moment as it’s still in the body shop for paint. Expect to get it back this weekend. Will post some pics asap once I get it back.
