I got my flame red ATS flares on friday, and I'm wondering whether or not to install them or let the professionals do it for me.

Are they easy? Difficulty scale of 1-10?

 

I installed mine myself and I definitely wish I would have had some help. It's a fairly simple operation but that extra set of hands would make a big difference. Be careful with the little prep sticks that you smear on the truck. I went a little wide with mine and it's a real pain trying to get that stuff off of your paint! On a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 4

 

I also installed mine myself with the help of an employee. But this is what I do for a living. The installation is pretty straight foward.

 

I did mine myself as well. No real major problems just the basic things like needing a extra set of hands every now and then. One tip is if posible have a 90 deg drill. You have to drill a couple holes in the rear fenderwell and if you have a 90 deg drill or a REAL small drill you wont have to remove the wheels. On a scale of 1-10 I would put it at abought a 1 or 2 but I went to school to be a mechanic and am now a CNC Machinist. Almost a pure bolt-on aplication.
