I dont understand how forums get asked questions that google gets paid by advertisers to do....

Google image search of Rangers with fender skirts 

and if there is only 1 -2 pics that should tell you NOBODY is or has done it enough to make it a trendsetting option being sought after which would either parallel everyone elses's thoughts that it just doesnt look right on that era of vehicle or YOU may become the father of a new trend that [oddly] would take off to new limits.

Dont go away, Im going to get my popcorn.

and before it goes onto saying im being an ass about this, im not trying to make your first couple posts become a barrage of insults, im just being realistic and logical here. Hold on a sec. Realize that IF there are pics of such a thing. There is a 99% chance they're online already and Google, Bing, Yahoo, ect... images would pull them even if via the "waybackmachine.com" was the only source... its either flooded, rare, or doesnt exist.

Even if the images available for search were 10,118 images.. whose getting paid by the OP to search through those when the same google search can be performed and searched by the OP.. am I right?

Holy Christ I 'm contracting Dvrichilittis....

OK thanks for your reply.I am not trying to start any new craze for fender skirts on a Ford Ranger .I want a set even if no one else does .I just thought possible someone might have seen a picture of one .Please don't task yourself with looking for a pic when Google gets paid to do it .I knew better than to ask .But I did it anyway.I'm so new here I just wanted to shake the cage some .Land with a crazy ideal that no one else would ever want on a Ford Ranger.Now I have arrived.Would anyone have ever seen a picture of a 1995 Ford Ranger with fender skirts on it ?? Long live Fender Skirts  !!!!!!

It wasn't a dig on the concept.

But as I pointed out, unless some elderly person not in touch with the outside world of social media has a Polaroid picture of such a thing. If it exists, ideally it would be likely online. Anything and everything said, photographed, mapped, opinionated, or otherwise if it's been posted in ANY public domain on the internet. It should be searchable.

My other recommendation. Take a pic of your truck.. there's several people you could submit that too and have them either sketch out or even better... photoshop the pic to look like it has such modifications done to it on top of whatever you may enjoy for to be done and you can literally create your dream or ideas before spending $ .10 one.

Matter if fact. Post pic if your truck and side skirts, I know a young lady who can satisfy your cause.

LOL if you want to put fender skirts on your truck it is OK! We dress our Rangers in what we "like" and what we like can differ from person to person.

One of what I consider the coolest trucks on this forum I WOULD NEVER BUILD ONE LIKE IT not my thing but it is ultra cool and the amount of work that went in to it is astonishing.

I am me, you are you, and James is..... James LOL :)

So by skirts do you mean step rails with fender extensions like the 90's Mexican style ( you can make fun of your own race lol ) quick pic of a Chevy and what I think your asking for. I've seen one in person which is the only one and from digging I haven't found any yet as far as pics go

to me a fender skirt is the plastic inner liner that keeps water off of your engine.
A fender flare rides and covers the lip of the fender

But I did a google search and apparently a fender skirt is this:

TommyT, being an old fart myself I know exactly what you are talking about fender skirts. Go to the attached link & scroll down to the 4th & 5th pictures of the 57 Chevy Bel-Air, those are fender skirts over the rear wheels.
