Title: Any ideas on what type of flares i should use on my samurai
Post by: msmzuki on June 20, 2010, 12:56:12 PM: Any ideas on what type of flares i should use on my samurai

1st choice bushwackers 6" flares but for 360.00 and a 3-4 week backorder i am haveing my doubts now.

2nd choice wrangler tj 7 inch flares $142.00 shipped but will require some mods to fit. but thet are instock and ready to be shipped.

3rd choice was flexy flares just extending my current metal flare. cost me about $75.00 shipped and instock.

Any input or pics will help me make my decision

Thanks Bill

I was kicking around a few options but ended up with these since they mount clean just like the factory ones.

WOW, I just picked mine up a couple months back and they had 10 sets.
Good for them on selling them but hopefully they will get more in stock soon.

I am really glad I went with the MudBusters.
They attach at the factory mounting points and are made specifically for the Samurai, they are tappered abit so they don't stick out as far at the ends, and they don't make the Samurai look like a Jeep.
