I don't think he is selling them, but rather is letting folks know the vendor in the link is at a sale price.

They do not fit without cutting and doing a ton of modifying.
Are you sure you're talking about the same product? According to the data on the website, no cutting or drilling is required. The screengrab below shows a portion of the hardware kit, which includes the same u-clips (bottom right) that come with the Bushwacker flares. These go around the fender flare and the inside lip of the car's fender and clip into a slot on the fender flares--no drilling required. The rest of the hardware is to make it look like the fender flare is attached using rivets or nuts/bolts, but it's just for looks.

These flares are flush at the fender next to the door. The front of them needs about 1-2 inches trimmed. The rear flares need to be cut to be able to open and close the door. Yes these are the same Iflares. I bought them from the link in your post. On my 2020 Ranger I paid a lot more for Air Design but they fit spot on. The EGR brand cost $100 more but they also have reviews from buyers. I could not find any reviews on this one.

Something is waaaay off. Looking at the sites pictures, they fit perfectly, but in your pictures, the overhang is terrible. I'm wondering if you were shipped a wrong or mislabeled set, intended for another model, perhaps the regular Bronco?

I'd be contacting the site where you bought them from. Hopefully you did not cut them up already.

Ah! I misunderstood your post, sorry about that. I agree with @Bucko, there's something seriously wrong with those. They look exactly like the Bushwackers I installed on mine, but the fit on these is horrible.

Well, as expected, they scammed me. I sent them many more picture's of the ill fitting flares an here is their answer:

Mike,

After looking at your video and pictures that you sent us, we have determined that the fitment is adequate and appropriate. Please keep in mind that it should shift into place once it is fully mounted onto the vehicle. The gaps on the rear fender flares should line up with the gaps on your door and allow you to open the door. If you look carefully at the picture that we have on the listing for this item that shows the flares installed on another vehicle you will see that the fitment is slightly off even on that one. Mainly on the front where the flare slightly touches the bumper. We deem this fitment as appropriate for the price range that these fender flares fall under.

Thank you

I looked at their BBB rating and hardly any were above one star. I guess I will try to trim them or just eat it and get some form more reputable suppliers.
Please do not buy anything form these asshats.

I think they are hit and miss. If yours fit great, that's fine. They just might be designed to have a little overhang. Mine were really out there. I thought about trimming them but that would just leave the inside open to catch dirt and mud. My biggest issue was the rear doors not fitting. I am glad your fit and that you are happy with them.
