Help with identifying fender trim

Matt Allen · August 11, 2020

Hey all, new to the forum. I am looking to add fender flares or trim to my 2014 1500 and need help identifying what are seen in this picture. I really want the black trim or flares (I'm not sure which it is) seen on this truck, but can't seem to find them anywhere. Anyone have any leads? thanks in advance.

If you own a Silverado you can't run those style of flare/trim. The Sierra has different front fenders and bed sides that are stamped different so that the trim has holes to pop into.

You would have to go with aftermarket flares if you have a silverado. There are several places that sell them but it all comes down to what style of flare you want and how large you want.

wheel opening moulding are standard on 14-18 gmc,,although your pics looks as though the truck has some type of front as well as rear mud flat extensions, not really able to tell if they are added to factory mouldings

Thanks for the response. Man..... that sucks. I do have a Silverado, but I love the subtle and clean look of the trim in the picture. Now I have to figure out how to do this with what I have.... I'm not a fan of the big fender flares or riveted look at all.

These are the small fender flares I've seen before. There might be others on the market just like it and there might even be some that GM sells too on their accessory website.

I would look at reviews and so on to see what others say. There are lots of customer pictures and good reviews on these.

Yea, I looked at those and the reviews seem to indicate there are clear fitment issues. Definitely not something I want to blow money on unless it's a good product, so I won't be going that direction. All said and told, it looks like I'm just going to have to go purchase myself a Sierra :). Thanks again for the input

Those are standard on sierras. Silverados do not have them. My 15 and 19 limited have them

Putco made simple flares for Silverados similar to the Sierra. They have glossy ones like the picture under the name Black Platinum Fender Trim (https://www.putco.com/black-platinum-fender-trim). They also have chrome ones as well. Not sure if they still make them or not.
