My opinion? Lose the bug shield and the running boards. It'll look even better then!

Running boards are staying, Kinda like them plus makes me feel good having some sort of buffer from car doors.

Yeah the more I think about it I am starting to lean away from the flare idea. I just dont want to catch anything in the tires and get out to see a dent or imperfection in the paint from some gravel.

Yeah, keep the boards. You never know when some idiot will drop a CD on the floor, take his eyes off the road and slam your 150 into a pole. Leaving you with 49 back procedures and backsurgery!!!! Yup, those boards do help!!!!!!!!!
