fender flares

does anyone know if nissan makes fender flares for the titan (like the last model fronty) if they do, can someone post a pic. or do you have to get them custom? i bet those would really beef up the sides.

Bushwacker and ATS makes fender flares for the Titan. Do a search on "fender flares", and you'll get plenty of pics.

I think Tom Minceralli has some on his truck, you might PM Tom to see if he has pics.

Here's a picture of my Titan with the Bushwacker flares. Very easy to install.

How much does it cost for a painted set?

The Bushwacker's come unpainted, you can have them painted but you have to do so locally - then it depends on which shop you go to. I had the rear bumper of my Titan painted and got a variety of prices from 3 different shops.

Quick question for ya Gearman, how was it opening the gas filler door? It looks like the flare would make it a pain in the a** to open??

I've got mine on order. I just can't decide if I should paint them to match the truck or not. (Decisions, Decisions). Gearman, did you have to take off the rear wheels to install?

And does anyone have a pic of a Galaxay Black Titan with the fenderflares painted to match???

PhillipYang, You have to get them painted locally as gearman said. I found a set on ebay for under $300.00 shipped.

Bushwacker's design is good & tight against the trucks curves and opening - the picture angle isn't real good for looking at the fuel door - but it is very simular to the Tacomas you may see flaired out - there is plenty of room to flip the fuel door open with you finger - never had a problem with it or thought it was a flawed design - I think they did a real good job in the design.

Cool, that's what I wanted to hear.

Thanks.

I think the Bushwackers give the truck a bold, finished look. When we first bought it my wife commented on the lack of trim around the wheel wells (we had just traded in a Ford f-150 SuperCrew with smaller flares) and said it looked "unfinished" or like it was missing something.

that is a nice looking truck! how much of a lift do you have on it? how many 'bolts/screws' for installation on the flares?

Hey Gearman, what size are those flares? I've been trying to figure out what size looks best and I think yours are it

. Thanks

i have the GB color and BWs, but have not had to time to get them painted. plus i have to trim some on the front ones because of the larger tires added with the lift rub in the back. i think these will match pretty closely to the other unpainted pieces on the truck, but i'm going for the more finished look...it will look tough AND good!

Here's some more pictures of my own truck with the Bushwackers: Skyjacker, Bushwacker, Centerline, and Nittos installed
