Had them color matched to truck. Turned out great, little added protection. This is my first time posting pics, I apologize if there no right.

Nice clean look, I might have to copy ya! I ordered a sliver gmc and have considered those flares. Any issues with install?

[skeeterzx]

It was an easy install, you won't have any problems.

Thanks, was unaware of a rebate when I ordered.

I want to get the matte black finish with the chrome screws, were they are to install? Do you have to drill new holes?

Yes, you'll have to drill a few new holes in the lip of the wheel well. They're not hard to install, but do require some level of skill.

I'm not a fan of drilling new holes in the truck body seems like a bad idea to drill there due to road salt. I'd bet, I would have rust there in less than a year.

Why? What's the purpose of these? I have lifted many trucks in my day and have installed my fair set of fender flairs but they where typically installed because the wheels where sticking out farther that the fender.

 

I want a set because I think they look good.

Got my Bushwackers back from paint yesterday and installed today. I think they come off those fender curves perfect and glad to be rid of the black fender trim and splash guards.

skeeterxz, flares look very good on your truck!

 

Does installation require drilling holes with those particular flares?
