Getting the Wheeling Fever

Does anyone know where I could get a set of fender flares for an 89 D50? I'm not looking to widen the fenders really, I want the factory looking kind, like on a late 90's and up Ford and GM pickups. Something about 2" wide.
A day late, A dollar short, and A half a mile behind...
pass me that crescent hammer...

89 Diesel, forgive me for piling on to your topic, but I wanted to add that I'm also in the (after)market for some rear fender flares for an 89 Raider. If anyone wants to divide cost of a set of bushwhackers (you take the fronts, I'll take the back, please let me know.
Many thanks,
Gian

The factory flares I've seen in wrecking yards only served to accentuate the wheel well opening, not provide any increased tire coverage. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Yup, thats what I'm looking for. I didnt know they made factory ones. Just looking to save the paint and prevent rust from eating the fenders (tires are tucked under already). Any chance of a supplier, other than wreckers? or a type off something else that will fit (cant find a D50 within 400 miles)

I tried hard to find the factory flares when I had my 88 ram 50 4x4. I found a couple sets in the USA in auto-reckers but damn rapists wanted $250+ shipping. I'm not paying that for used fender flares.
