I have a 2003 Dakota.
I can find no pocket flares for those years or any nice tough looking styles that I like.
My thoughts are can a set for a full size fit with minimal destruction to truck or flares.
Has anyone tried or have any experience with nice flares for it.

These are pocket style flares.

I'd take your tape measure and measure front to rear across the bottom of a Ram's fender opening to confirm just how BIG those openings really are, especially when compared to the Dakota.

On the other hand, I'd bet something like a S10/Toyota/Nissan truck/SUV flare could be easily made to work.

I guess it's been done. Belt sanded contour to fit. Scroll down a ways.
