Default fender flares

I have been looking around the last couple of days for some aftermarket flares for a series 1 disco. All the ones that have been listed in old threads seem to be discontinued. Anyone know of a good place to look?

Thats the only pics I have on my phone if you want more ill get some when I get home later this week. I will say that the screw that come with them are junk so I just got a box of stainless self drilling an self taping screws they hold a lot better.

Its just not big enough yet. I cant pull my big truck in. I was stupid when we built it and only put 12x12 doors kinda tuff to fit a 13' high truck in.

Very nice looking rig Long Haul, and thanks for the pics. What size tire/lift are you running? I really like the look of the reversed spares but worried about all the added stress on the front end.

Its about 4" or so lift. There ome 763 rear and 764 front and 2" spring spacers. The tires are 33x12.50's. Ive been runnin the spares for about a year now and never had much for problems with the front end stuff wearing out other than wheel bearings but they had 160000 miles on them so im not to worried about them. It definatly handles a lot better with the wider stance. Also I forgot to mention the rear doors are a real PITA to cut, I used a plasma cutter but theres no way I know of keeping the inside of the door "clean" looking. When you open my rear doors all you see is where I cut and folded the metal but I rarely use those doors anyhow.
