What Fender Flares Do for Your Vehicle
Fender flares serve two purposes at once, and both of them matter if you are putting your vehicle through real use.
The first is protection. Your wheel arches and the panels around them are constantly exposed to everything your tires throw up. Mud, gravel, small rocks, dirt and water all get flung outward as you drive, and over time that chips your paint job, scuffs panels and creates the conditions for rust. Fender flares extend the coverage around each wheel, shielding the bodywork and catching more of that debris before it does damage. If you are driving on rough terrain, working on construction sites or spending time off roading, that added protection makes a real difference over the life of the vehicle.
The second is appearance. A good set of flares changes the look of a vehicle in a way that few other accessories can. They add width, give the wheel arches a more defined shape and create a bold stance that looks purposeful and ready for work. For owners running wider tires or low offset wheels, flares also help keep everything legal by ensuring the tire coverage extends past the tread line. In some Australian states, exposed tread beyond the guard can cause issues at registration or inspection, and flares address that problem while enhancing the vehicle’s appearance at the same time.
Whether you are a tradie who wants a truck that looks as tough as the work it does, or a weekend tourer who wants the ride to match the lifestyle, fender flares are one of the most visible and practical exterior upgrades you can make.
Styles and Finishes Explained
One of the biggest decisions when shopping for fender flares is choosing the right style. We carry various styles and profiles, and each one gives your vehicle a different look and level of coverage.
OE style flares sit close to the factory body lines. Sometimes called slim or low profile flares, they add a subtle bit of width and protection without dramatically changing the look of the stock vehicle. These are a popular choice for owners who want a clean, sleek finish or who prefer something understated. OE style flares offer a snug fit that complements the vehicle’s body lines and works well on vehicles that do not run oversized tires.
Jungle and Off-Road flares are the extended style fender flares in our range. They are wider, more rugged and designed for vehicles that see serious use on rough terrain. Extended flares push further from the body to accommodate wider tires and provide more tire coverage and shielding against debris on bush tracks. The textured finishes on most Jungle flares add a tough, utilitarian look that suits work vehicles and off road builds.
Pocket Style flares feature a bolt-on look with visible rivets or fastener details around the edge. This design gives a more aggressive, off road inspired appearance that has been popular in the 4×4 community for years. They offer good coverage and a distinctive, bold look that sits somewhere between OE style and full Jungle width.
Monster Texture flares take things further with a heavily textured surface finish. These are the most rugged option in the range and are designed for owners who want maximum visual impact alongside solid protection.
Most flares come in matte black, which suits the widest variety of vehicle colours and provides a smooth, durable finish that is easy to maintain. Some models are also available in textured black, gloss black, chrome or colour-matched options like white for the Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series.
Flares across our range are easily installed using factory mounting points or 3M automotive tape. Most kits do not require drilling, so the vehicle’s body stays untouched. Each set comes with hardware, fittings and everything you need for a secure fit.
If you are looking at other ways to upgrade the exterior of your vehicle, our body cladding and mouldings range pairs well with fender flares for a more complete look.
Vehicles We Cover
This is one of the largest fender flare collections you will find in Australia, covering utes, SUVs, wagons and 4x4s across a huge spread of makes, models and years.
Ford has the deepest coverage in our range. We stock flares for every generation of the Ranger, from the PX1 (2012-2015) through PX2 (2015-2018), PX3 (2018-2022) and the current Next Gen (2022 onwards), including Wildtrak-specific options with sensor holes. The Ford Everest (2015 onwards) is also covered with multiple finish options. With that many Ranger choices, it is worth checking the year range and variant carefully to make sure you get the right fit.
Toyota is just as well represented. The Hilux range spans from the 1988 models right through to the current N80 generation, including Rogue and SR5 specific options for 2021 onwards. The Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series, 76 Series, 80 Series, Prado 150 and FJ Cruiser all have flares available too. For the 79 Series GXL, there are multiple finish options including matte black, textured black, white and a TRACHO wide body Jungle option for owners who want the most aggressive look.
Nissan Navara owners have plenty of choice across the D40 (2005-2015) and NP300 (2015-2024) platforms, with OE style, Slim, Pocket Style and extended width options available depending on your preferences.
Mitsubishi Triton is covered across the ML/MN (2006-2015), MQ (2015-2018), MR (2019 onwards) and the latest 2023 facelift. Isuzu D-MAX has options from 2012 through to the current 2024 model, including a TRACHO wide body Jungle flare for the newest shape. Holden Colorado covers 2012 through to 2026 across multiple year splits.
Volkswagen Amarok is covered for both the original (2009-2020) and the current model (2022 onwards). Mercedes-Benz X-Class (2017-2020), SsangYong Musso (2018-2021), LDV T60 (2017-2025), GWM Cannon (2020-2022), Mazda BT-50 (2021-2023) and Jeep Wrangler (2007-2018) round out the range.
Some models offer flares with or without sensor holes, which matters if your car has parking sensors or cameras mounted in the guards. Always check the product listing to confirm whether your model needs the sensor hole version.
How to Choose the Right Set
With this many options, narrowing things down is easier than it looks. Start with your vehicle make, model and year range, then decide on the style and width that suits what you are after.
If you prefer something clean and close to factory, go with OE style or Slim. If you are running wider tires or want a more rugged appearance for off roading, extended style fender flares like Jungle or Pocket Style will give you the tire coverage and look you need. For specific models like the Ford Ranger or Hilux where there are multiple options per generation, pay attention to details like sensor holes, body variant (SR5 vs Rogue, Wildtrak vs XLT) and whether you need a full set or front-only.
The materials and durability of ABS plastic mean these flares are built to handle Australian conditions without fading, cracking or losing their form. Once installed, they protect your paintwork from scratches, stones and wear while keeping your vehicle looking sharp.
