Rocker Panel - Wrap / Fender Flares

View attachment 94835By any chance did you have the same issue with the front flares running short or did they fit perfrctly? The Mopar store online provides three different part numbers for the same part. It sucks that they don't provide better description or images.

I feel like these must be rebel flares

No. Mine line up with the bumper. You must have the wrong fender flares. Those might be the ones that go on the Rebel.

After considering all of the options available. I decided to purchase a roll of 3M Wrap Series 1080 - Matte Deep Black -M22 to wrap the rocker panels on the truck.

It took me a day per side since I'm an amateur at wrapping and there are a lot of twist and turns around the door sills.

I also purchased a set of tools to apply vinyl:

I also installed Mopar OEM fender flares after applying the rocker panels.

I had to remove the clips from the OEM fender tabs and put 3M tape on the tabs, after I honed it down and smoothed it off with a dremmel tool with a sanding head.
Since I do not have the factory holes in my panels.

What size vinyl wrap did you use? How much did you need to buy to do the rockers.

What size vinyl wrap did you use? How much did you need to buy to do the rockers.

I ordered 5ft x 25ft (125 Sq/ft), It was probably double of what I needed but wanted to take into account for mistakes since this was my first wrap and for re-wrap at a later date.
