I've got a dilemma I was hoping you guys could help me with. I'm stuck on deciding whether or not to go with the 01+ rounded fender flares on my 97... do you think they would look better than the 2000 and below flares? The older ones arent as rounded and are actually textured whereas the newer ones are smooth...

Help!!!

The 01+ are also textured based on which ones you get.

If you get ones for a FX4 they will be textured if you get ones for a EDGE they will be smooth and can be painted to match

I think the newer FX4 would look best.

 

[rngrdanny22]

I thought about the newer ones, but I was kinda afraid they would just look like Bushwacker flares on my truck...

Stl, I totally forgot there were two seperate ones... The ones I would go with would be the Edge Flares..

 

[Stl]

I like the painted ones my self. The textured ones fade over time

 

[Olfordtruck]

I like my edge ones on my edge but I thought the FX4 ones were the ones where it looks like the bolts are in it... maybe im thinking completly wrong... hehe... Edge just has all the best features... flares, powerdome hood, honeycomb grill, front valance... all the goods! haha, this is coming from an Edge owner though!

 

[rngrdanny22]

the FX4 has the powerdome hood too... LOL ;D

I'm kicking around doing a complete front end swap on the 97... would love an 01+ front end...

 

[Olfordtruck]

well... well... well...........the Edge one is better! haha, just playing! hehe. 01-03 is a great front end! are you trying to do the hood, grill, valance, and fenders?

Yeah, the whole thing... dont forget the dreaded core support... LOL

 

[rngrdanny22]

i like the bushwhackers lol

Haha.. I do too! I just dont like how far they stick out... not on a Ranger atleast...

I guess the 07+ ones wouldnt stick out too far... maybe I can try and use photoshop and see what it would look like...

 

[Olfordtruck]

oooo, have fun with the core support! That should be a challenge! haha

 

[badinten]

the 01 to 03 front end is one of my favs i was goig to do the swap but why would i do what every one does. i want the something new and different front end. like the newer 05 and newer one with the two different honeycomb bigger in the center like the 01-03. i would show my front end idea but yall just have to wait until i get closer to being done with it every one will think o **** i should have though of that lol

the core support is not that bad to change but there was two guys that didnt change the core support on there pre-97. they now drive with the new front end and old style core supports. found them on rps they just made new brackets

You just have to do what you want and something unique to you... every truck needs a theme and a plan, once you make that plan you have to stick to it and make it great...how much longer will it be until we can see it.

I like my edge ones on my edge but I thought the FX4 ones were the ones where it looks like the bolts are in it... maybe im thinking completly wrong... hehe...

the 06+ rangers have those style flares

[Olfordtruck]

so thats the years of those fenders! hehe.

looking forward to the pics and build write up! Powerdome hoods are the best! Makes a Ranger look beastly!

The bushwackers stick out too far, other than the work involved, i think you shoud do the front end swap, just keep your bumper.

 

[rngrdanny22]

yeah, the bumper is already off an 03 and I would be keeping it... Maybe while I take the core support off, I can throw in this 5.0 I have sitting around... wishful thinking... LOL
