For sure, here is a photo of the factory can-am fender flares.  They look beefy in the photos, but I have yet to see any in person.

Those look good from the side there. I would definitely be interested in seeing what they look like from the front and some real-world photos as well.

Me too.  I have lots of mud where we ride and haven't yet felt the wrath of the XMR tires.

I haven’t seen this mentioned in any posts yet... maybe it has been and I missed it. Sorry if this is a repeat.

There are actually 2 different sets of fender flares made for our machines with different part numbers. The “sport fender flares” are the smaller ones. The “fender flares” are the larger ones. I took a screen shot of the factory accessory catalog that shows pictures of both of them. The regular fender flares seem to be geared towards the guys that run tracks due to the extra width. The sport flares seem to be geared toward regular tire setups. I guess there could be some cases that the regular flares could come in handy if you ride in muddy conditions, etc...

hopefully this helps someone looking for new flares for their machine. I ordered the sports for mine and I love them.

THEY ROCK!!!! Sheds nearly ALL the spray from hitting the sides of the rig. Of ALL the OEM parts I've added, THESE ACTUALLY WORK and they give "Bear" a "BAD ASS" look

Here is a shot after coming home. As well as a frontal shot with the rancher bumper and flares. Oh yeah, and one of the snow pack on the bumper that shows how high the snow was the night before.
