Toyota Tundra Fender Flare Install - No Cutting Required

We install OE style fender flares from TRDSparks.com on our 2008 Toyota Tundra and show you the full installation process. These flares give the Tundra and extra inch of tire coverage, which was exactly what our truck needed with the 18x9 +0 offset Volk Racing TE37 wheels and 285 wide Toyo Open Country AT-II Xtreme tires.

Those flares with the wheel combo make the tundra look awesome! Tacoma styling with a bigger, and arguably more purposeful truck. Tundra is now on my list for a daily truck (when the time comes)

[@speedacademy]

It's a great truck for daily! And perfect for towing too!

[@ryanrohauer5940]

Garage Topics 1 Word ..... diesel

[@peterdaniel66]

so funny seeing this 7 years after it was filmed and Im like wow! As if it was just yesterday and current.

[@wildcatcowboy6591]

I like a little bit of the tire sticking out from the fender well, gives it more of a wide bull dog look.

[@SilverStackers]

cool! we made that truck here in San antonio, Tx. Im an engineer for the plant that make multiple parts for the truck, including the laser welded instrument panel reinforcement

[@doctorlobsteroctopus]

Good ole TRD sparks. I have 3 toyotas (well, 2 scions and an MR2) and love their selection.

[@JesseCarmichaelAutos]

Those are clean as hell fender flares!

[@rogerramjet5092]

that trim molding is called welting still used on original bugs or most old cars with bolt on fenders.ie 34 ford ect.

[@williamneigum7002]

So nice to see other people do my job :)

[@jorges2000]

It turned out good. i like the toyota series.

[@mrantone916]

Omgosh it's Boyd Coddington back from the dead ahhhh! 🤤😲

[@ChooseLanes]

is the color supposed to match?

[@workplaytv]

Looks good guys. You need to dip the grill and badges and black that thing out

[@speedacademy]

It's on our list of to-do's when the weather gets better and warmer.

[@jeufuyang6261]

Are the clips going onto the fender or fender liner? Looks like it’s facing towards the fender liner

[@CPDRollo53]

I really enjoyed the video. My 2008 Tundra came with flares. Came with a Southeast Toyota XSP package. I watched the video because I took the flares off for a while. Now, I am having issues putting them back. On your video, you talk about how the clips install, but it was hard to visualize. I would have loved to see you shoot that from underneath so we could see how they grab on. The clip does not seem long enough to reach under the liner or does the clip actually grab the inner lip on the fender itself. Found some instructions online but they are terrible. Dont show how the clips grab the fender and stay on.

[@zachariahgalindo494]

Truck is looking good

[@texanerection492]

Those flares look great. I hate the look of those crappy bulky bolt on fender flairs. My .02

[@KyleD25354]

i demand some 240z action!!! :))

[@MuadDib1402]

It's what we all want!

[@jordanz3316]

260z* and i couldn't agree more!

[@speedacademy]

It's just sitting and collecting dust so nothing to report of... yet.

[@CrossWindsPat]

Looks really good!

[@AngusOutram]

Looks good guys! When can we see some more S2K content!

[@MANNO_GG]

if it helps at all I'm 99% sure your trucks paint is "Magnetic Grey Metallic" or 1G3 is Toyota's paint code.

[@Liemciemdk89]

those flares are not wide enough bro

[@TheStwat]

By what, 3mm? as if that matters

[@danielbottolfson6643]

is the negativity really necessary BRO ?

[@jimleesur5610]

What is the difference between this and pocket style?

[@davitvetkama3016]

Where to get that they don’t make it anymore

[@petecolone5125]

I'm playing. I love u guys videos. good shit.

[@dantheman3426]

Do you have part numbers your link doesn’t work

[@jamiehalifax4954]

Can you put your factory mud flaps back on after putting these on or do you have to toss them ??

[@elliottmah]

Did you also get the TRD shift knob to replace the big ugly shift knob that comes with the tundra?

[@WeBeWrenchN]

I'm guessing these are no longer available. Sadly my truck got hit and run at work. Busted my front flare. I can't find them painted.

[@leefhead1]

Youre still a bro to me, bro.

[@speedacademy]

Bro. Do some pushups.

[@jesseDM240]

Hold on... what's up with that Datsun in the corner?

[@ivisortiz604]

Súper helpful video

[@alexusw2]

What does a fender flare do? My Tundra already had these when I bought it

[@docjody8624]

Those black "U" Nut retainer clips at 05:53: what length & dimension of bolt did you screw in there to hold those clips in place? Seems they'd be fairly short-- thx.

[@ghettoflyer]

With all due respect guys, people usually put the mud guards on top of the fender flares (not the other way around). Other wise the mud guards aren't really protecting your paint from rock chips, and you create a pocket to collect mud, snow, ice, and salt.

[@speedacademy]

That's what we thought so too but the way they are designed they fit behind the mud flaps.

[@johncasey5817]

What's "broies"?

[@richardmaxwell4489]

I got them the seal came loose after two years fell into the fender on top side only, undid bolts to reaply seal.Question can I use supper glue gel to keep seal in place live in Washington lots of rain, go to car wash that may be what did itor silicone glue don't want to screw it up what do you recommend. Richard,

[@94bluedime]

FD bumpers everywhere. F/S? Come to Import Alliance April 9th

[@williamchiles1460]

So these work without mudflaps??

[@boostben]

Bro-truck style haha You go fun boys

[@FavStaR69]

Did the oem mudflaps go back on after?

[@Mark-cj9ju]

the product page you linked to doesnt exist. Where can I get these flares

[@deweberis2709]

So disapointed... No gore, sweat & blood spill, metal grinding like when the BasAss2000 fender flares was done. Is it illegal to run cars w/ wheels surpassing the bodywork width in Canada?

[@edsauer4702]

Can you order painted?

[@roberthale8407]

You guys cannot complain, you have Tim Hortons.

[@ryanrohauer5940]

Robert Hale im American and have timmy hoes

[@HaywoodDouglas]

Please Let me Know WTH " Is a bro style look?

[@leedye6687]

Any gaps?

[@DiogoDC123]

i want a bloody tundra. thanks guys

[@ryanrohauer5940]

Diogo DaCunha why bloody. u want a Toyota that was involved in a vehicular manslaughter?

[@DiogoDC123]

yes of course

[@mitchreive7253]

so I found the website that you got them from and my question is was it still cheaper off them by the time you paid exchange, shipping charges, and customs for them. ? they have cool stuff. thanks

[@mitchreive7253]

I'm in Canada also.

[@speedacademy]

These particular flares, which was the only style Dave was interested in, can only be ordered from Toyota dealers in the South East region of the United States and TRDsparks.com had the best price and quickest delivery time on them. In terms of importing them to Canada, we have an address in Niagara Falls, NY that we ship to and then we go down and import stuff ourselves to keep brokerage/duty costs to a minimum. But if you get them to ship to your door in Canada, ask them to ship USPS if they can since the brokerage fees are lower than with UPS or FedEx.

[@ryanrohauer5940]

Mitch Reive I live in buffalo!! haha

[@brookereive]

Mitch Reive good question

[@scottgrafelman2390]

Hey guys. Just found your video. I was wondering how well the front flares are staying on? With just the few clips on the top and two bolts in the rear it looks like the front of the flare is totally snug. It even looks like it's not as tight to the body in front as it is in the rear of the flare. Comments?

[@speedacademy]

Its held on for over 4 years so no issues as of yet and they still fit snug

[@NazmBilir]

Any S2000 action?

[@BAYAREAMX]

what's the specs on the wheels and tires?

[@batman9592]

Castrol NOT Valvoline. I don't know what you mean.

[@ofnarcr]

Yeah scrub that dirt right into the paint real hard haha.

[@tomahoks]

ofnarcr No man, chemicals prevent that from happening.

[@iraqtt]

Should have titled it Wide body truck conversion

[@tyrelthibault5264]

Now it looks like you went back to factory tire tuck. Looked much better in my opinion before!

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!!

[@chadanderson9140]

Powered by Valvoline??? What does this make your truck, better than “bro” I’m sure... “Sis” truck, or “Uncle Rico’s”???

[@4.0cowboy]

What’s bro style

[@ViperKillerWannabe]

Still need center caps. :D

[@stevegoss9791]

...and the link doesn't work anymore. #JOY

[@joelvarela4444]

Does anyone know how strong a drill has to be to remove lug nuts?

[@ryanlord1874]

A drill isn't for removing lug nuts. An impact is what you would want to use for lug nuts, any 1/2" impact electric/air should be able to do that but to be specific you would need an impact that can put out atleast 175ft/lbs reverse to pull off everything up to 1 ton trucks.

[@joelvarela4444]

Ryan Lord cool anything you could recommend ?

[@petecolone5125]

who makes that waterlish cleaner?

[@leefhead1]

3m

[@speedacademydave]

LOL. Go easy on me, Pete.

[@pkuudsk9927]

Paint match =0 ,,,+ now the mud road salt can build up in the flares and rot the metal as you willl never get the inside clean ever again. I would suggest that you bed liner under them ,after cleaning up the fenders first properly.

[@matt2m]

P Kuudsk aluminum rusts? I know the iron frame is different but the body should be safe

[@edvardhuseby946]

lonewolf5460 The body is not aluminium, only the F150 has alu body.

[@guajardosteven36]

match the grill!!

[@ChooseLanes]

anyone else see the orbs?

[@jordanz3316]

Da son Dat son Dat sun Datsun Datsun Datsun

[@ryanrohauer5940]

Jordan z33 rb and or 2j datsun!!!!!!

[@wildcatcowboy6591]

Nothing Bro about it. tires sticking out a little bit, it looks like a real truck and not a Mall Crawler

[@Bad_Agent01]

I couldn’t find for 2018 or 17

[@dragonflyjones4611]

You are a bro

[@FavStaR69]

Not sure about thanking Omar, the color doesn’t match :(

[@minecraft2696401]

looks good, but the paint doesnt match

[@Danielism]

RockToTheDead The factory paint flips and pitches pretty intensely through the video, plus don't expect bumpers to match with a color like that

[@speedacademy]

It's deceptive since the light effects the colour quite a lot and the flares are rounded surface so the light bounces it off it differently than the flat surfaces. But the rear flares are a bit darker than the fenders, which isn't the painter's fault. We just gave him the OE paint code and the flares and said paint em. The quality of the paint work is excellent.

[@firepower131]

First

[@JustGeminis]

Theres those fat fingers again !

[@JimJones-999]

Remove side steps , badges ,and chrome!!!

[@081588101]

i have a tundra to sell at the moment, if anyone is interested...

[@robertappleyard7053]

Please stop adding farkles to your Tundra, and spend some quality time with Connie.

[@Josip5001]

not Tundra again...

[@Stigs722]

The color is way off

[@11snakedoc11]

That's a no, bro. Match that shite up!

[@a456987]

#hellaflush

[@itsmedeka]

color doesn't match

[@HollyBoni]

you racist

[@jasonrobbind231]

saying bro truck is that a dig against black people because bro is short for brother I don't know two white guys walking a fine line there in this sensitive world we live in careful fellas people might mistake you guys for wearing pointy hats LOL!

[@jonathanmoga5188]

Wtf are you talking about

[@KoreRacing]

Do you troll the internet looking to call people racists? That’s called a witch hunt. A “Bro” truck is about ANY guy who probably spends more time in the gym than anyone really should, they lift it more than is actually functional, rolling on way too big of wheels on rubber band thickness mud terrains. Keep it about cars bud. (Bud stands for Buddy [a close friend, not the rapper])
