I looked at your vanArtacoma wrote:Look at your van

Isn't it the van you always wanted your van to be
I looked at my van,
then I looked back at my van
and looked back at your van,
Your van looks, it looks.......
just like my van but shorter and green with smaller wheels.

But seriously, very nice job. They look like they were there from the factory, two thumbs way up.

Nice tutorial and pictures too.

Re: Looking for L400 fender flares and Terzo ladder
Thank you for the pictures and the detailed report Artacoma. I was concerned about mounting because I had fender flares installed by Otto Auto Service in Richmond. That was a BIG mistake. I ended up with ripping the flares off and sealing the holes they drilled scratching one fender and leaving the gaps between the fenders and the flares . I would love to have flares installed but I have some doubts about drilling the fenders again.

Re: Looking for L400 fender flares and Terzo ladder
Rik, you did a beautiful job on those flares. I am getting ready to install mine soon. Hope they come out half as nice as yours. I'm in the process of buying wider wheels and tires.Looking for some ideas. Wondering whether to go with 15s or 16s and what will fit with the new flares on. I have a 2" lift also. What have you guys done for wheel and tire combos ?
