Default Fender flares

I've been looking for a set of fender flares for my 99jimmy and I found some from egr on Amazon but they don't show any pics of how the rears deal with the back door opening just wondering if any of you have any experience with them because they are kind of expensive and I'd like to know what im getting myself into

So far the only place that sells proper 4 door blazer flares, is jungleflares.com. they are 50/50 when it comes to quality. I retro fitted a set of 2 door zr2 flares for mine.

sorry I should also point out that you have a better chance of finding other 4 door flares if your in Indonesia area lol.

Maybe attach a link to the flares you found, someone will chime in on whether they will fit or not.

EGR's website doesn't even list any for a Blazer, interesting that Amazon has them :/

I found a few sets of 2 on there by EGR.
The rear set said it would fit a Jimmy....but not a Blazer. I think a 2 door, perhaps, but not a 4 door. Unless you want to customize them like DonL or warthogdriver.

Default Installation Info from Jungle Fender Flares

I emailed the Jungle Fender Flares and got the following information:
Hello,Thank you for contacting Jungle Fender Flares. These fender flares attach through the underside lip of the flare into the inner lip of the fender, like most fender flares traditionally do. The front flares in this set require using some simple metal strapping to reach a mounting area in the inner fender. This isn't required on the main rear flares though. On the rears, you can screw through the underside lip of the flare directly into the inner fender lip. For the small pieces that mount to the rear doors, you will have to make some little straps too. I have attached some photos.Here is a video demonstrating how to install the front flares. We haven't yet completed the video for the rear flares yet though.Thank you for your interest in Jungle Fender Flares. Please let me know if you have any further questions.Sincerely,
Blake Gratton

I got the same pictures and info when I emailed them a few months ago, on another fender flare thread.

I am trying the Facebook direction of locating the Indonesian kind ... Been very slow so far.
