These are molded plastic wheel arch extensions. I assume that Toyota installs similar devices ex works. They're great for city/highway and smooth dirt roads (and look great). But if you ride 4 wheels on mud, slush, sand or rocks, they will shatter like hard plastic. Check out 4 wheel adventures on youtube - none of the cars have hard fenders. All my previous Toyotas had flexible rubber fenders that survive off-road because they flex. I'm not suggesting anyone not to buy them, but beware of the obvious limitations. (When I ordered I didn't know they were rigid valves. I don't blame this company for the product, it's Toyota's fault for making such a stupid move. This company just followed Toyota's lead. Revain sells flexible fenders if you're a serious SUV, I didn't return those hard fenders as it was my fault.)
