Fender Decals

Fender flares and quarter panels take more abuse than almost any other surface on a vehicle: road grit, mud spray, brush, and sun. This collection gathers decals made specifically for that zone, from fender flare accent stripes to full fender graphics and rally-style mud flap triangles. Each decal is cut from automotive-grade vinyl, sized to fit common flare widths, and finished to hold up against washing and weather. If you have ever had a generic sticker peel at the flare edge because it could not follow the curve, these are the shapes and materials built to solve that. Browse by vehicle type, size, or finish below.

What You Will Find Here

This collection covers fender flare decals, quarter panel stripes, side accent graphics, mud flap decals, and decal kits that combine fender pieces with matching door or hood elements. It is built for owners of trucks, Jeeps, Broncos, and passenger cars who want graphics that fit the panel rather than generic shapes trimmed down at home.

• Truck owners adding flare accents or side stripes
• Jeep and Bronco drivers dressing up plastic flares
• Car owners doing rally-style quarter panel graphics
• Fleet and shop trucks that need simple side identification

Most designs are offered in multiple widths so you can match your flare or panel without custom cutting. If you need a one-off size or logo, our custom stickers collection handles that.

Vinyl Options for Fender Decals

Two vinyl families matter for fender work. Cast vinyl is thin and conformable, which is what you want over the compound curves of a fender flare. Calendered vinyl is thicker and more economical, and it performs well on flat or gently curved quarter panels.

• Calendered vinyl: thicker film, gloss finish, best on flat panels
• Cast vinyl: thin and conformable, works over flare curves
• Cast wrap vinyl: ideal for textured flare surfaces and tight radii
• Air-release liner: lets you reposition and push out bubbles during install

Finish options include matte, gloss, clear and static cling. Laminate is worth adding on decals that sit low on the fender where grit hits constantly.

Sizing and Placement for Fender Decals

Measure the flat area of your fender or flare before ordering, not the total panel. For flare decals, measure the visible flare width from wheel well edge to outer lip. Common sizes in this collection run 6, 8, 10, and 12 inches wide, with lengths from 18 to 48 inches for full flare runs.

• Flare accent stripes: 2 to 3 inches tall, cut to flare length
• Quarter panel graphics: 12 to 18 inches wide for cars, 18 to 24 inches for trucks
• Mud flap triangles: typically 8 to 10 inches per side

On Jeep and Bronco plastic flares, leave at least 1 inch of clearance from the wheel opening so the decal edge does not sit where rocks strike. For placement height, most side graphics look balanced when centered between the body line and the flare top.

Applying and Caring for Fender Decals

Follow these steps for a clean install on paint or textured flare plastic:

• Wash the panel with dish soap and water, then wipe with isopropyl alcohol to remove wax and silicone
• Position the decal with masking tape along one edge as a hinge, then step back and check alignment
• Peel the backing, spray the surface with slip solution if using air-release film, and lay the decal down
• Squeegee from the hinge outward, working bubbles toward the nearest edge
• On curves, use a heat gun on low to soften the vinyl, then stretch and press with a felt-edge squeegee
• Remove application tape by pulling it back on itself at a low angle

Wait 48 hours before pressure washing. Hand wash with mild soap and a soft mitt. Avoid parking brake cleaner or solvent sprays near the decal edges, and repress lifted edges promptly to keep grit out.

Choosing the Right Fender Decals

Work through this short list before adding to cart:

• Surface: curved or textured flare means cast vinyl with air-release; flat panel means calendered is fine
• Exposure: low-mounted decals in grit zones should get laminate
• Look: gloss reads as painted pinstripe, matte reads subtle, clear blends with the paint
• Size: measure the flat area, then pick the width that fits with margin to spare
• Budget: a decal kit costs less per piece than buying fender, door, and hood decals separately

If two options tie, pick the one sized closest to your measurement. A slightly small decal is far easier to install than one that needs trimming on the vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

Will these decals stick to plastic fender flares?

Yes, if the flare is smooth or lightly textured. Clean it with isopropyl alcohol first, since plastic flares often carry mold release residue. For heavily textured flares, cast wrap vinyl applied with heat works far better than standard calendered vinyl, which will bridge the texture and lift at the edges.

How do I know which size to order?

Measure the flat, visible area of your fender or flare with a tape measure, not the full panel. Compare that number to the decal dimensions listed on the product page. Choose a size equal to or slightly smaller than your measurement so you have adjustment room during install. If you are between sizes, go smaller.

Can I install these myself or do I need a shop?

Most fender decals in this collection are DIY-friendly, especially those with an air-release liner that lets you reposition and push out bubbles. Flat quarter panel installs are beginner level. Compound curves on flares are intermediate; a heat gun and a felt-edge squeegee make the job much easier.

Will a pressure washer peel the decal?

Not if you wait 48 hours after installation for full adhesion, and then keep the nozzle at least 12 inches away and avoid spraying directly into the decal edges at a sharp angle. Pointing a high-pressure stream straight at an edge is what causes lifting, not the water itself.

Can I remove the decal later without damaging paint?

Warm the decal with a heat gun or hair dryer on low and peel it back slowly at a low angle, keeping the film flat against itself. Any remaining adhesive comes off with isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth. Original factory paint handles this fine; fresh repaints should cure fully before applying.

Do you offer matching decals for doors or the tailgate?

Many fender designs are part of larger decal kits that include door, hood, or tailgate pieces in the same finish and color. Check the product page for kit options. If a matching piece is not listed, our custom stickers service can cut the same design at a different size.
