The Bronco throws rocks like crazy with the OEM fender flares. No way am I getting the delete...

Just my opinion though.

I've seen some Broncos with the fender delete. It looks pretty good...however the bad boys on my Wildtrak look awesome in there own right. Probably wouldn't do the "delete" (or any mod) unless it's a clear improvement in my mind.

I did them, then put it back to stock. I found a few issues.
1. They look terrible with the stock bumpers.
2. You will eat mud with the windows down.
3. Increased road and wind noise.
All that said, I will put them back on as soon as I get my new bumpers. They do look badass with bumpers that fit the body lines.

Iā€™m running stock steelies and 255 tires. I plan on a flare delete, but not the 4wp deletes. Tire poke on the Bronco isnā€™t any different than poke on anything else.

Iā€™m getting enough crud up the side of my Bronco when it rains wearing Sasquatch flares. These tires hold BIG rocks too. No way am I putting on deletes. Seems like itā€™d be a nice way to ruin your paint job.

I've seen discussion about a 'Weekender' Fender Flare, but have yet to see any pictures - other than a mention on a SEMA sample from last year with squared off fenders. Take a look at the Dee Zee build at SEMA, they have Flare Deletes on that one also. If they are priced right and come on/off as easily as the stock SAS flares, I might get them for 'show' or sunny day driving cause I like the way they look. Then pop on the SAS Flares when I'm doing my daily drive. Waiting to see pricing - 4WP too much.

Admittedly, I'm also a little concerned that these do come off so easily and that someone will be tempted to relieve me of them to sell on eBay.

Fender FLare Deletes are only good if the wheels are flushed under the body.

Iā€™m staying skinny tires on stock steelies. Havoc Off-road is supposed to be coming out with minimal flares, not delete.

As it is Iā€™m already rubbing the crap out of my flares, so losing an inch or so would be nice.

I took mine off and LOVE the way it looked. But the stock bumpers stick out way to much.

I've got a set of the 4wp for a 2 door I'm willing to part with. Brand new in the box. I bought them when they first came out a couple months before I got my Bronco. I like the idea, not a huge fan of the plastic flares, but decided to go a different direction. If somebody here wants them Ill give you a good deal plus whatever shipping ofcourse. PM me

Have any pictures that show the awkwardness, I feel like it would be obviously awkward but can't find any pictures of stock bumps/fender deletes
