Post Fender Flares

Trying to help a young guy, find some black fender flares (unpainted) for a 99 CTD, 2500, QC, Long Box. He is looking for something that will give about 2 inches of coverage and will cost less than $350. (BW are quite costly) Anyone know where they can be purchased? Will even consider used ones.

Thanks

Easy to mount as well. I have had mine for 2 years and they are still looking great.

Tom R,
I went with the ATS instead of the Bushwackr Flares for two reasons.
1) The ATS flares cost considerably less than the Bushwackr's.
2) The ATS flares use a two side tape between the body of the truck and the flare instead of the gasket. As you noted with the vibration when driving and the buildup of very fine grit between the gasket and the body, the paint will wear away to bare metal.
