PIT66 Front Right Fender Flare,Compatible with 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Ford Escape Wheel Well Arch MoldingCJ5Z-16268-AB

The product is well built and the end result after mounting it looks extremely good. I see many reviews of people complaining about the fit, and the problem is with the hardware provided. 1 - Back fasteners: The screws that come with the hardware are too short for mounting. I have used stainless steel 3/4" screws and these did the trick. 2 - The Front mounting hardware provided consists of plastic clips. They will come off easily, as it did happen for me driving on a windy day on the highway. The solution - I mounted 1/4" u clips with Stainless steel machine screws. These hold strongly and well not fall off. Seller was responsive to the problem and provided additional rubber strip after the original one fell off one of the flares when getting lose on the highway. I did not drill into the car body with self tapping screws, as others suggested. Once you "hack" the hardware as suggested above, they are securely and tightly mounted, and offer a great look for the truck. Check the pictures and see for yourself.

Looks great on truck.

Right off the bat, I want to mention that these flares are very nice with a few caveats. Here are my thoughts, both good and bad. Most of the stars are for the quality of the flares themselves. They’re solid, well-formed, and look great once installed. But this said, I probably should have given them three stars based on the installation experience, but because of the quality and the fact that I was eventually able to get them on, I’m keeping it at four. Issues to be aware of: First, as many reviewers have said, the installation instructions are not great. By “not great” I mean they’re nearly worthless. They look like copies of copies, the photos are hard to make out, and the steps don’t line up well with what you actually need to do. The first front flare took me almost three hours just trying to interpret the instructions, but once I figured out what they meant, the other side took about 30 minutes. Second, the fitment isn’t quite as advertised. This set claimed to fit my 2004 F-150. The front flares, once I understood the process, did fit well. The trick is to remove the existing screws up in the wheel well, add the included brackets, reinstall the screws, and then use the push fasteners to attach the flare. On the bottom, there are two additional screws you remove, fit the flare, and reuse the screws to secure it (see pictures). The rear flares, however, were a different story. The lower section and the center top lined up fine, but between those points there was at least a one-inch gap (see pics). I spent hours trying to make the instructions work and finally gave up. In the end, I bought some black bolts and nuts, drilled holes in the underside areas that did align, and secured them that way. Once I stopped trying to force the instructions and used my own hardware, I was done in about an hour. The visible parts fit pretty well overall, with only a few small gaps that only you’ll notice. One important note: you do NOT need to drill through the sides of the truck. Any holes you drill are on the underside of the wheel-well lip, so you’re not damaging the body if you ever want to go back to the OEM flares. Bottom line: they look great and are worth the investment, but expect to get a little creative during installation. Hopefully the pictures I included help someone else avoid the same confusion.

Fits great.the hard ware is useless unless you use rivet nuts and bolt them on

The end result looks good for the price. However, mounting was terrible as i had to drill new holes in some places for where the hole was in the flare. The hardware i received was incorrect and didnt fit the truck at all. Had to go to auto store to get new fasteners and bolts. Instructions are terrible, its like trying to read something in a different language then being asked to describe it. IF you buy these have fun, took 5 hours to fit them when it says its a 1 hour job.....

Excelente

As one of the people who is honest about needing to cover rust on the pickup bed, I can say that these are great for the task. The installation is a little confusing due to poor instructions, but it is not difficult by any means. You will want a second set of hands to help hold them in place while bolting them on. Also, the curved mounting pieces on the front end took a little bit to figure out how to install, but other than that, this went very smoothly. I broke one of the plastic mounting pins while installing it, but Lowes carries them, they're standard car panel mounts. If you are covering rust, check the condition of the edges of the wheel wells. If they are still intact, the clips install without much difficulty. I recommend these to anyone who wants to cover rust on the pickup bed, they look really great once installed.

Hard to install if following directions and using supplied hardware. Sheet metal screws are a better and easier option. Additionally, flares did not fit perfectly and needed tweaking.

Convient tres bien a mon véhicule et facile a installer

I like these a lot. Low profile helped mask some fender rust. Trucks that have big bulky flares look ugly to me, these are thin and easy to install

OK....awesome pieces.. BUT they neglect to notify the buyers this unit does NOT bolt unto the fenders... the accessories they provide is for show only.... we had to buy fastening screws to do the installs

Very simplistic don't stick out past the fender

The price seem to be very intersesting but this product is not available in Canada. The distributor dont deliver in Canada ??
