I have a 1999 2-door chevy tahoe with the factory fender flares. These fender flares have a tendency to suck. Instead of making them out of solid color plastic all the way through, they are yellow plastic with a coating over them. Well, my coating has started to wear off, and now I have bright yellow spots of my fender flares. This looks about as bad as it sounds. So, I have decided that the best thing to do is to take them off and coat them with herculiner or something tough that will not wear off. My question is how do i take these off to paint? There are bolts that seem to hold them on, but after removing those, they still wont move. Are there some bolts that i am missing, or some special trick to get them off? Would it be easier to just tape off the truck and paint them while they are already on? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

 

yhey may me held on with two sided tape i know mine were n my 99 blazer. if they are you should be able to get them off still but then you have to get the tape off the truck and the flares then replace it after. it depends on if you want to do it or if it may be faster to tape it off and paint it that way. hope this helps.

 

Any one know who might have a Parts for a 4 door Tahoe Z71. I need the D/S Rear Fender Flares which are a 2 part Kit. 1 for the Rear Qtr. Panel & 1 for the 4th Door. GM has Zero. VPI Has None, Junk yards have Zero. Can use some Help... Ron & 909-437-8671 CELL or 507-721-2415 HOME . Thanks

 

Guess we now know how that removal went. Sorry to hear about that. I just picked up a 99 but it has the chrome strips. Was planning on the flare kit but sounds like a hard to find item now.

 

Buy some after-market flares.
