that makes no sense, if you already have a pair, then why would you buy another set, and 2 THATS WHY THEY GUARANTEE THEM SO WHEN THEY DO BREAK, THE REPLACE THEM!!!!!!

i think 400 bucks is enough to get you about 3 or 4 dozen sets of plastic fender flares anyway.. do what you want, but umm yeah the only reason i have them on my jeep is because of the warantee... try calling and asking instead of assumin.. why do you think they are 400 bucks for plastic?

Makes perfect sense to everyone else. I dont have 2 sets or even 1.

They don't guarantee dishonesty.

hey man, you need to chill!! Bushwacker is selling sets for what....400 bucks? I know for a fact that the companies cost on ONE set of these for any vehicle is easily less than 40-50 bucks cost. this kid is not at fault or fraudulent at all by trying to get new flares, wasn't his fault and its covered under the warranty! doesnt make a difference! you wont pay more for them because of one claim on the warranty. dont worry about that lol. why doesnt he deserve them? granted people are occasionally frauds no matter what, companies factor this into their price no matter what before they even sell it! Trust me, bushwacker is doing plenty good financially! no need to worry for them haha and im not trying to mean by this post, just honest!

the warantee is to cover trail damage when your rig is out in the rocks and trees ect. which is alot harder on things than a few punk vandals are i as sure with that said if I were to sell a product w/ a trail warantee I would also cover vandalisim....as far as getting these punks back do not attack them phisically (they will call the cops) set a trap catch them in the act, find out what they drive and wait it out time is on your side them after things have cooled down it is an eye for an eye to the tenth power..be creative and make sure that there are no witnesses.

Wow, I'm in awe that most of you guys think that vandalism is covered under "warrany" haha man thats funny. Yeah, I know there doing good, but thats not because there selling there parts, not because they are replacing damaged ones by vandals. It seems as if this is just a moral decission to me and you can do the dishonest thing or the honest thing. It will show true character which way you decide.

i think it falls back on whether he wants to pay 400 bucks for another set, OR get the free ones he paid for with the first order.. hmmmm
