FITTING GENUINE SR5 FLARES and tyres TO 2008 SR

[SRD4D]

No disrepecting your lux or you guys but they are not the same size flares as the hilux SR5 has,these ones on mine bellow are the utemart copy of the geniune type .Again nothing wrong with those type either it still looks good.

Where did you get yours from, and are yours the same size as the genuine flares? Are they made using the same material as the genuine ones?

Utemart mate.
Made out of ABS plastic,
Peice of pisse to put on, identical in shape to the SR5 one,utemart sell a couple differnt types to suit 150 hilux.

I want to put an SR tub on my 2011 sr5, my tub is buggered and I want to get the headboard and better tie downs (the sr one)
Can I remove the flares of my tub and fit them to an sr tub? How are they attached?
Thanks

Iwent with the Utemart. Very easy fit. Looks tough as
only problem is i have a velocity Red singel cab.
So had to get the paint shop to match the colour costing $315 buckos. The flairs i picked up from Utemart Burleigh cost $240 buckos for the pair.

I was told to paint the flairs as the plastic turns to a whitish look as the plastic has nothing to protect it from elements like wind sun salt age etc.

man... make a template from the flares out of carboard,drill the holes, bolt them up. or can you just hold them on the gaurds mark the gaurds where the holes need to go and drill....

I fitted genuine SR5 ones to my 2008 hilux. All I did was put the seal around and screw the screws in the holes that lines up with the plastic in the guards. They've been good as gold and I run 265/75/16 on +7 offset. Pictures of fitting and wheels in the guards are in my build thread
