I just order the Fender Flares for my 2008 HL Sport.
It's an accesory for the 2011 Part #:00016-48140 available in primer and must be painted ... I already contacted Gary to update the 2011 HL accesory link and add this new PN.
Was looking for these over a year now. Contacted aftermarket company bushwacker and they did not have it (for all toyota's even 2011 rav4, tundra, runner, tacoma,land cruiser even sequoia except our HL ) . NOW its Finally Here .. Hopefully I get it soon.
Once I receive it will paint and install it.. Will keep you updated in about 2 weeks with pictures. Please be patience !!!
Geeeezzz. They just email me today from southeast part center that the part is on back order until
End of nov. They said maybe for week of thanskgiving.. Now lets wait.
Part Received. BUT BAD news.. It seems like we going to have to make some Custom Adjustments.. The part only fits 2011+ , not 08-10...
Aligning bolts , Front is too long (due to the 2011 small lip) ..Since Im keeping my Mudflaps, I will turn clockwise and cut the other end.
To fix that, I here I will cut end adjusting my mudflaps and then paint. I WANT TO KEEP MY MUDFLAPS. Yes !
Rear Doors DONT Align at the bottom either.. I will have to heat/bend n cold water Plastics and install before painting .
Rear bumper end will also have to bend/cut/adjust my mudflaps
Give me couple of weeks it busy these holidays once I get some spare time to work on these.. Will keep updated.. Tx
Good luck. I'm sure they will look great after all the work. I'm gonna pass, and kick back with a brewski. Can't wait to see finished job Pic's.

350 for the flares. Plus painting about 350 in a good shop. Unless u want to do the paint job urself with spray can abot maybe for 150 and save 350 . I OPTED to have it proffesionaly oven painted and spend the 350.. so 700 overall. (I already had a dremel, n the torch i rented at home depot)... as far as mod i spent 3 hours per flare.. not easy at all... i wouldnt do it again to be honest.
You can get them already color key painted for the 2011-12s. It is probably my next purchase for my new ride.
I do wish they made flares like the new Subaru Outbacks have as an option. They cost the same and are just black textured bumper plastic and thinner. Google for pic. Probably easier to install and still protect the outer wheel well from dings.

How much further out do they extend then the stock fenders?

I just got the color keyed ones for my 2012 HL. The front flares look straight forward, but it's the rear I'm concerned with. The back half seem straight up also, but the part on the door has me worried. Do you think a regular handy guy can do it or should I take it to the dealer?
