My 2002 Avalanche suffered from terminal body rust, mostly from the edges of the painted metal wheel wells being damaged by road debris.  My 2011 Avalanche has plastic OEM fender flares that protect the bottom metal edge of the metal fender from stones and debris thrown by the tire. Plastic takes the abuse, rather than painted sheet metal.  It is starting to rust in other places, but not the wheel wells.

 

I’m thinking of a 2019 Suburban RST, but they seem to have no protection for the wheel wells - just paint over the steel of the wheel well.  Has anyone done a mod to add the plastic late model Avalanche style fender flares to a Suburban?  I don’t want radical wheel flares that appear to be attached with stove bolts...  Just something to protect the edge of the fender well from stones thrown by the tires.

 

Any suggestions or experience with this?
