Are you happy with them? How was the install?
Being that they did not line up easily It was not a one person job, but no there was not any double sided tape... you basically unscrew the wheel well liner screws which are plastic, and then screw them back in after affixing the fender flares. I found this to be too difficult to do alone in my driveway and had the body shop install them because some of the screws did not go back in easily and It did not come with extras.

I replaced the factory tires with 245/65 Toyo Open Country A/T III's I love the look, but it did make my tires look smaller so now I am looking at offsetting them a wee bit.

How did they install if you dont mind? Double sided tape only?

So these are different Bushwacker fender flares from the more subtle ones offered as an option by Ford. Bushwacker's website is not yet offering this style as of April 2nd 2022.

My son installed mine. He had to drill out each install hole. They were too small for the existing clips. Once he did that, he lined up and installed front to back. He managed it solo.
I agree that the largest tires that will fit are too narrow and it really needs a spacer to look good. I'm disappointed

I have a hybrid, so I don’t intend on lifting it, or installing larger tires. I do like the definition that theses fender flares help create though. I would be all about a piece of trim that mounted like the flares but didn’t stick out at all.

Right?!? 😂. I need to pull the trigger on the bigger ones but even the largest Toyos aren't going to help too much

This thread is a couple of years old, so you may not get a reply. From what the people who have installed and then removed fender flares said, dirt does get under the flares and could leave scratches. PPF is a wonderful idea. 😬

Did you install PPF under the fender flares?
Sorry, I do not recall. I had our body shop install it but I no longer have the truck. Driving a ‘24 year Lincoln Aviator now. I recall there was a rubber seal around the edges pre installation.
