WOW!!

 

[JacobLeverett]

Wow that looks fantastic! What was the wait time?

Edit, too bad they don't offer Expedition Max options... Sad Day.

I never liked the "slab sided" look of the Expedition and after seeing the SEMA Expedition that Baja Forged created I knew that was the look I wanted. The only fender flares available on the market at that time were the rubber one-size fits all type. I contacted Baja Forged and asked to be on their "waiting list" if they ever produce their flares for production - that was almost 2 years ago. Now they are in production and available. Its a subtle change but I'm really happy with the result.

You must hate the factory design, coz I find the price is over 1000 dollars after tax.

Yes I am particular with my cars - I like to have some uniqueness to my ride. I never liked the "slab sided" shape of the new Tahoe and Expedition and I feel these flares give it some more traditional shape. And if you add larger tires/wheels to an Expedition I personally don't like them to extend beyond the fender line.

What is used to secure them to the body?

 

[TheVI]

They look great
Did you lift yours at all ?

Blue Painters tape

jk
There are clips and ubolts that secure them to the factory mounting holes in addition there is a double sided moulding tape that runs the length of the top of each flare and secures it to the body

Yes in addition to the factory lift it has a 1.5" front and 2" rear lift with 295-70-18's with 1.25" front and 1.5" rear spacers

They look really great. Looks like it gives a lifted vehicle with wider/larger tires a factory look.

 

[Shotgun76]

Looks great; any pics head-on from the front? Thinking of doing the same.

 

[ExpySPP]

Looks like they have 2 lengths, are these the longer or shorter

Baja Forged makes one for the regular size Expedition and one for the Expedition Max. I have a Timberline which is standard size length.
