I would think it should almost be a mirror image of the driv side but it looked nothing like it. the shape is different, the angle is different and it doesn't match up to the spoiler. Called them and they sent a replacement that was exactly the same. They told me there must be something wrong with my van because I am the first person to have any problem in 30 years. Keep in mind I have 2 dodge vans those years and they fit exactly the same on both. SO now I have a set of $300 flares and one doesn't fit. I hope hanks is still around cuz I'd like to get a set for my other van too. am working on moulding the bad one to fit.

I was wondering if any of the older year flares and front spoiler kit would even come close to fitting my 1997 van. I know the front would be very diffrent because of the shape. That's when the king of fiberglass would come into play.
I understand there would have to be some customizing issues. but that is why we call them custom vans.
Any thoughts, ideas, solutions, or knowledge welcomed please.
I want a vannin and truckin look.

They said it is best to call.
