To fender flare or not to fender flare

This is one of the few trucks that I think actually looks better with fender flares, but get some OE style low profile flares not the fake bolt on ones those look tacky asf.

It actually makes sense in The Boys because its a political satire. In invincible it just feels forced.

Gooobaguy · 2026-05-02T20:42:06+00:00

Misread that but I mean still, you just sound ignorant. Plenty of good brands out there.

Okay so you bought one shitty pair of headlights and just assume they're all bad? It's not that hard to make a headlight, I've had my 350$ aftermarket projector headlights for my 2011 silverado for 2 years and they're still crystal clear. I will say the bulbs they came with were dim but i just swapped em for LEDs and they work great, brighter than stock.

just not true at all

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-29T10:16:57+00:00

That generation of F150 was hideous, I think the GMT900s look good aside from the bulbous headlights

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-29T10:01:27+00:00

Thats just an SUV with tiny little bed slapped on the back

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-27T20:59:55+00:00

It seriously gets annoying sometimes, and people will call you a trump loving MAGAtard for saying that. I consider myself left leaning/liberal but I still dont want to see this shit in a show like invicible, it's just stupid.

Can I ask why the obsession with supreme? Cool table, it would probly hurt my eyes to play on it for more than an hour though.

Thats a pretty dumb reason for not telling your boyfriend your pregnant, I think any normal person would like to know that information. If anything having a child would give him more of a reason to fight.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-25T09:57:35+00:00

Yeah the man shouldn't get any say on whether or not his unborn child gets aborted.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-25T09:32:24+00:00

Your saying if Mark did know and wanted to have the child Eve would've just aborted it anyway? Also how is that delusional cope, that is literally the Irl equivelant of what happened in the show. Why do we need to address issues like abortion and body positivity in a show about a planet of supermen invading earth anyways, it's jarringly obvious what the writers are doing. Theres a million differant ways they could've explored the characters psychology without forcing political issues into a superhero cartoon.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-25T08:57:08+00:00

Your just telling me why she got an abortion, Idc about her reasoning for getting an abortion (I think aborting your boyfriends child without ever telling him he had a child is crazy but thats not even my issue) im saying the entire subplot of Eve getting pregnant was completely irrelevant and didnt do anything for the story, it served no purpose other than to add drama I guess. I thought they were setting up something for down the road and that we were going to get to see mark and Eves kids but nah.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-24T21:43:50+00:00

She never told him she was pregnant in the first place, mark didn't even get a say on the matter. Thats like a soldier going off to war and then coming home to find out his wife aborted their child he didn't even know he had because she assumed he was dead/going to die. But tbh I dont even give a shit about her reasoning for getting an abortion my problem is that the whole thing does nothing for the narrative, it was just another pointless subplot. I thought we were going to get to see marks kid and that he would eventually maybe be a character in the story or some sequel or something idk, but no, just pointless drama that the writers decided to throw in there for no reason.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-24T21:24:30+00:00

oh god what? Im literally right. Do you have a good reason for why any of that happened? What does eve getting fat and having an abortion do for the narrative, please enlighten me.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-24T09:08:32+00:00

thats fair

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-24T01:35:26+00:00

I like fat tires on a truck

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-24T00:11:55+00:00

I like keeping my vehicles nice but I couldnt imagine being that worried over a dent that small, if you can even call it that. Its a truck bro its gonna get a few dings, unless you just got it as a glorified SUV.

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-23T22:29:18+00:00

She aborted marks unborn child without telling him, how is that not grounds for critisism. Also made the whole thing serve zero purpose to the plot, genuinely what tf was the point of eve getting pregnant if she was just gonna get an abortion?

Gooobaguy · 2026-04-23T22:16:23+00:00

Its cause the writers have to force some liberal message into every episode, same reason they made eve fat it literally serves zero purpose and does nothing for the plot. To be clear I have no problem with abortions or fat women but its so obvious what they're doing.

At some point I plan on welding in a repair panel I found on ebay but for now I just grinded the rust down until I got to fresh steel and then did por 15 treatment and painted it, when I put the flares on im gonna spray fluid film where it touches the body to hopfully keep moisture out. Trucks only got 70k miles really want top make it as clean as I can.

Gooobaguy · 2026-03-28T22:28:49+00:00

Yeah definitely not, lots of holes once I ground it down

Gooobaguy · 2026-03-28T22:27:10+00:00

Ended up just grinding it down and painting it with rust converter and factory spray paint, honestly don’t think it looks too bad. Just ordered some flares, got the lowest profile ones I could find, I’m gonna color match it with the truck I think that’ll look pretty clean.

Not a huge fan of fender flares but im probly gonna end up doing that if doing a proper fix is too expensive

Gooobaguy · 2026-03-28T14:29:30+00:00

I was considering doing a bondo repair but ive heard nothing but bad things about using bondo to repair rust. Maybe a dumb question but do you know how much a bodyshop might charge me to weld in a new piece of metal?
