Those look really good. Way to figure it out for us lol. Just one question, when the fender touches the paint, does it allow the fender to move and flex from vibrations? Wondering if dirt and grit can get in and damage the paint.

I put Rough Country flares on my truck and they came with rubber edging to go against the edge of the flare and the body. I could kind of see that on the rear ones here. I bought some clear paint protector tape that's 1/2" wide. I bought a grease pen and mounted the flare without the edging to determine where they would sit. I then traced the outside edge of the flare on the body. I put the protector tape on the inside edge of the line. I put the edging on the flare then mounted them.

These come with rubber edging you put on, they also come with pieces you put on the paint where the clips slide onto the painted part under the flares. They are held on pretty tight so not a lot of flex.

looks like the HD version where they would have an amber light in that place

Amber light you say? I wonder if that could be added to our 1/2 tons and wired into the parking lights...

I pulled the trigger on these flares on eBay.  $300 shipped.  I was not crazy about how smooth they were out of the box, was expecting a bit more texture.  But once I got them on I loved the way they looked.  No instructions provided but the install was fairly easy,  I looked at some instructions for similar style flares from other brands before starting out.  The fit and finish is perfect, all the hole and edges are lined up right where they should be.  

 

I'm a fan...Not too big, not too little.

Will these fit with the stock mud flaps?

Yepp the fit right on top of them.

I forgot to show the front flare and how it mounts around the front air slot.  I thought it was pretty neat that it retained the opening and did not cover it up which I thought for sure it would have.

Is there any install instructions anywhere online for these? Mine just came in today, and I have an idea how they go on, but I am not the biggest handyman. I did email my dealership to see if they can email install instructions. I do not see these on the GM accessories website, so I am hoping the still have access to the install guide. Either way, can't wait to get them on!

My dealership was kind enough to print off the install instructions for me. Try to get to them this weekend.

As long as the weather holds out, these will be going on my trail boss tomorrow. Will get pictures posted if I succeed.

You should scan and post the instructions so the rest in the future don't have to figure it out like I did lol
