Fender Flares Kit Compatible for 2007-2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 (Only Fit 5.8 Feet Short Bed), Textured Matte Black Finish Front Rear Wheel Pocket Rivet Style

Overall, it doesn’t look too bad however, when you get up close, you could notice gaps because the fitment isn’t very good. I used them to cover some rough spots on my bed wheel well and it worked good for that.

Bolt assembly took about 30 minutes with an impact. Putting the seals on took another 30. The biggest issue was my mud flaps. The bolts were seized, most of the hardware I had to cut off and replace. Once I started the assembly the process went by fast. Over all took me 4 hours to assemble. Love the result.

UPDATE: I am about to buff and polish my truck, so I removed these flares after they were installed for only 2 months. They scratched my truck really badly. I will not be re-installing. If you don’t plan to have these on forever, probably don’t install them. Also, the customer service department reached out to me offering me another set claiming the one’s I got were defective since they don’t fit flush. The new ones they sent sat exactly the same way. I appreciated them trying to make it right, which is the only reason I’ll leave them any stars. Good customer service. Bad product. I really wanted to love these fender flares. However, due to the fact that they do not sit flush on my 08 Silverado, I’m bummed. They look good on the truck (from the side), but when you look at it head on from the front, the flares stick out about 2 inches from the body. I read several reviews that mentioned this issue claiming they fixed it with some self tapping screws, but no amount of self tappers can fix these unless you actually screw them into the truck body. Not doing that! Aside from that, be prepared to do some manual labor to install these. Took about 2 hours just to attach all the rivets, that are purely decorative, and the rubber trim to protect the truck paint. I feel like these items could have already come pre-installed on the flares, but I guess you get what you pay for. Installing the front 2 were not that hard. Installing the back 2 was kind of a pain. Some of the rivet holes weren’t drilled out, actually 5 weren’t, but I easily drilled them. Also, kind of lame it comes with chrome hardware, but I painted it black to match the truck. All in all, if you are on a budget and flares are a necessity, like they are in Hawaii due to stupid laws, these will work. If you want quality, probably save up for some bushwackers.

The only thing I can really complain about is the fact that the bolts that go in it Wich are just for looks mind you have to be put in your self. So after wasting 15 min's of your time putting them in then you can move on to the install. Other then that they did there job of hiding my rust. And they make the truck look better.

Material is alright quality, i've dropped them and pushed them around my spare room a number of times over the last 2 months prior to install and they've held up really well. No cracks and minimal scratches or scuffs. I just like others have experienced, didn't have very well aligned mounting holes for the fender lips and also several of the hardware holes were drilled off center. Rear flairs hang down a little below the body. I didn't like the final fit with included hardware so i ordered a bushwacker hardware kit and installed them propper! I will say after using the flairs with propper self tapping hardware vs the imitation hardware the fit is MUCH Better! The front corners of the front flairs flex away from the body and the same is for the rear flairs with supplied hardware, Mine do not now with propper hardware.
