Default Flat fender flares

Thinking of picking some up but had a couple questions...

1) Are they a royal pain to install?

2) Do you retain the inside liners? If not, does it allow your engine compartment to get much more dirty/muddy?

Thanks in advance to anyone who knows the answers!!

Just go on Quadratec.com they have .pdf instructions for almost all their products you can see how hard it is and if you have the tools to do it.

I have the bushwacker fenders. Took about 4 hours to install. They use the original fender wells, just have to chop them down a little bit... Love them.

You can just trim the factor fenders. It is pretty easy to do. Getting the inner fenders out is the hardest part.

I was running trimmed stockers but just recently picked up a set of xenon flats. Were pretty easy to install and I'm extremely pleased with the fit and finish of them. Hopefully they gave me enough room to for the new meats.
