Power Wagon Factory fender flares - Next BOMB?

[Tomeygun]

I had a TDR member ask me about the PW fender flare part number, and I thought ya'll would want to know as well , and I could not remember if it was posted before

Tomeygun, I seem to remember a thread where you had info on Powerwagon Flairs but I can't seem to find it. Anyway I would like to put them on my truck to keep some of the mud off from the 315's. Can I get them thru you or do you have any info on them? Thanks for any help. Jerry Raffaele

Ahh, took some time, But I found the part # for a 4-piece kit: 82209352

List - 349. 00

TDR price - $327. 5



Matte finish, but it seems they are paintable

I think I might just like them black for my truck

Every Power Wagon I've seen has the same flare color-all dark gray or black. Up close they look more dark gray than black. IMO

They look exactly like Bushwacker Street Flares. I looked at them closely. They are black matte, like the door molding, or most of the unpainted flares you buy. They look good on the Power Wagon, but they still just have a rubber molding strip that just sits against the fender. I assume that you would never take them off, but were I go on the beach and down stretches of Padre Island the sand and salt air would eat the paint up quickly with that type of fit. It might not show, but it would eventually rust quicker.

I agree the fit is poor. I'm looking at buying a Power Wagon right now and was thinking it would be the first thing I would tackle.



Initial thoughts would be to pull the flares and put a DIY bedliner behind the mounting seal. Then bolt the flares back up.

Exactly, I checked on these flares when they first released the part number. If I remember correctly, they are made by bushcrapper. I would not recommend these unless you want the paint to be worn to the metal in just a matter of months. They are not really big enough to have any real benefit as far as protection goes. All for looks if you ask me.
