Just checked, I have one in my cart, about to hit buy. Says 3 left in stock, not sure if one of the 3 is the set I'm buying.

With tax (California I'm sure), delivered $156.57

BTW, was there a Mavrick Forum discount available somewhere?

Better hit send soon! They go fast and who knows when they’ll come back up.
$150 is still much cheaper than anything else. With no tax (Oregon) they’re $145. So a few extra bucks isn’t bad. I think there was originally (discount) probably expired by now.
For the price I wasn’t too concerned. With availability being in short supply I just went for it.

I did get mine, installing today, if I get that rough edge sanded down on all 4 pieces.

What did you guys get in the box? Mine was the 4 pieces individually wrapped & labeled, one tool, a bag of 20 plastic retainers & a one page instruction sheet?

Been wondering if the way these are trickling in if they are returns?

🤔 👍😁 Having been in e-commerce for 7 years. I am willing to wager you some are repackaged returns.
The majority of people have no idea how Amazon works.
When people buy a product through Amazon, don't like it and want to return it. Sometimes Amazon says 'We will return your money, just keep it.'. Most people think that Amazon is just being generous.
It's not Amazon money. It is the business owners money. When I was doing e-commerce. Depending upon the price of a product. Most times it wasn't worth paying to have it shipped back.
Then paying an employee to open it up, go through it. Making sure that all the pieces are there. Make sure everything is good and in working order. Repackage it up and then you have to sell it as used. Reoccurring the postage cost.
Depending on the product price cut off most of the time it wasn't worth it.
How do you think Amazon gets pallets of returns that they sell? Amazon doesn't lose any money on your returns. It's all the business owners $$$$
I hope this helps.

Update 6-12-24. I received my “flairs” a day early but had other projects. So I finally got to it yesterday and they are installed. My review; the plastic grain isn’t a good match but from a couple feet away you can’t tell. The quality is pretty questionable. There were a few very minor imperfections and some of the holes didn’t line up (3) one on each. The 4th one was perfect but it had a slight chip in the plastic along the lower edge. You have to look hard for it. One of the “flairs” was an 8th inch or so shorter🤷🏻‍♂️. So there’s a bit of body color that can be seen (I’ll put a bit of black paint in there. Or maybe a little piece of tape). Again you would have to look for it. A little bit with the drill and the 3 holes lined up. All the other holes were perfect. The double sided tape is holding strong and they went on smoothly. I used the factory clips except for a couple and used the supplied clips. (They all suck! There should be bolts). But they seem firmly attached and I would feel confident taking them through a car wash. I knew going in that these were on the cheesy side and a bit of drilling would be required. But for the price point I’m happy. They look great (against the “cactus gray”) and I like how the black trim carries all the way around the truck now. They don’t stick out (maybe a quarter-half inch). But they should help with rock chips and other debris around the wheel well. Anyway I’m happy and I think it looks good. I’ll post a picture or two later in this thread.

Okidoki! Thanks to some detailed info from onemuir, I forged ahead with my Mabett fender flair installation. I wasn't sure what drilling they'd done. Asked and received a PM explaining. Attaching a few pics from the right (passenger side) install.

Chose right side F& R as first ones, they were a little challenging. But only required 1 re-drilled hole in each.

Moved over to the driver side full of confidence... oops. LOL Again 1 hole in front, but that rear took 4 adjusting holes. Mine were so misaligned that instead of enlongating the original holes I had room to just drill completely new holes basically 1/8 to 1/4 inch away from the provided holes.

Specific to me, I ordered my truck with mud flaps, so had to unbolt them to get the flairs on. Also took me a minute, the snap plugs that came from factory are two sizes, one very short and one longer. The snap plugs that come with the flairs are all nice and long. When going through mud flap and flair the longer plugs are necessary.

So, fitted them up, installed plugs and screws. Then removed the tape using a little tail I'd started pulling that stuck out. Caution, that tape can break, so pull slowly, and pull the flair slightly out as you remove the tape.

I think they look great!

They look good. I think it “finishes” the truck.
Did you have any gaps at the ends on the back flares? One of mine was pretty bad. (Pictured). The fronts were fine and the rear driver side was a little off. But the rear passenger side is significant. I don’t understand how they can be so off on the hole placement and sizing🤷🏻‍♂️. Not like the trucks have hand made fenders or changed body styles.
I guess I got lucky to only have to elongate 3 holes (one on each fender) again, I don’t understand how the holes can be that far off.
I’m just going to put a little paint to fill in the gaps. Nobody will notice unless they look for it.
here’s a couple (bad pics😆) first one is the front of the rear passenger side the other side isn’t as bad and the only flare that didn’t need any modification🤷🏻‍♂️.

They definitely finish the look. I have EXACTLY the same gaps on the rear, passenger side larger like yours. For the moment I’m not planning on any fix.

I think I might try some black silicone to fill in the gaps. I’ll mask the area to keep a consistent line. I can also keep the height/depth consistent.
I also need to put my front mud flaps on🙄. There just cheapo ones but I can trim them to fit. The “regular” ones seem to stick out a bit more than I like. Though your factory ones look good. I may go that route in the future.
next up for me is exhaust. I’m trying to figure out what to do there. I don’t want to pay $500-$800 for a muffler and a bit of pipe just so I know if the truck is running🙄. Not looking for any hp gains. Just tired of hearing nothing but the ticking of the fuel injectors.
Anyway, glad your flares worked out for you!

I will go thread searching, after only 4 days, the right front fender has developed a gap where the tape is not sticking. Vaguely recall a post that described the same problem, don't recall what they used to re-adhere the flair.

I think it might be a little bit Thicker, but try alien tape.

When I pulled the bumper cover to cut out for the grill guard I used a new flux brush and some 3m body and molding adhesive to re-wet the tape. Then held it down with some blue masking tape over night to cure.
A little heat and patience I was able to get just the end to release.
