Muy buenos

First and foremost, the appearance is amazing. Not big and bulky but, follows the lines of the Fender. I did not paint and install but, the body man that did was very happy I bought these. The parts match up to OE holes and he painted them to match. Quite difficult to tell they weren't the original part of the vehicle. My rear fenders started showing typical fender rust. The vehicle is a 2011 Silverado Z71 4X4. The only downside is they slightly clip the Z71 decal. Not extensive but probably about a 1/2" corner of the decal. Still much better that rust!!!

Once I finally got them on, they look pretty good and fit well. Just be aware however that the instructions are totally bogus. Steps 6 & 7 indicate that you need to use plastic Clips. However, according to the included Hardware kit there are no plastic Clips. There are only S spring clips U spring nuts. They don't ever refer to the U spring nuts so those are plastic clips. In Step eight it tells you to put a plastic tab over six marks however, they only send 8 plastic tabs which means you can only use 4 on each rear wheel not 6. Finding the factory holes once you have the Flare on can be a challenge, however you can pull and push and twist and they can be located. The final complaint is the trim installation. The first flare took me an hour to put the trim on. I got it to half that on the second flare and the last two flares actually only took me 15 minutes a piece. Definitely not user-friendly. However, the end result is satisfactory.

They are plastic finder flares nothing special. The price is way to high for what they are, for $400 they should come ready to bolt on the fact that these are double the cost of the nearest competitor and I still have to install the weather striping is a joke! The rears don't fit and ended up having to buy a separate set for the rear even thou Amazon claims these will fit my truck make and model. I feel like I just get robbed shopping on Amazon now days its just not worth the hassle anymore! Stuck ether returning these to get the correct ones or just eat the difference so I don't have to wait for ever for the product. This is becoming a common occurrence with all Amazon vendors.

I saw some reviews that claimed to have had issues with the rubber seal adhering. Initially I also had a problem, it wasn't so much the adhesive as the way I was applying it. When applying the strip you have go slow and make sure the strip is seated properly, once seated properly the strip stayed in place. The flares themselves are a nice addition to my truck, little pricey but they look great on the Chevy.

I passed the fender flares on to my body shop guy( he recommended them).Was able to successfully install them. Am very pleased with the results.He cleaned the slight rust and epoxied the wheel wells , then installed the flares.We will see how long they last.

We got them to cover up a repaired rust spot on a 2007 Chevy Truck. It looks great. Fought with the rubber seal piece coming off the whole time. There was a whole lot of persuasion going on the get the holes to line up. Considering these are nearly $450 for 4 pieces of plastic, you would think that the seal could be put on by machine at the factory. (It would be very easy to do.) The instructions that came with it appeared not to be for kit that I purchased. Either that or they are the worst instructions ever written. BUT, now that they are on, they look great. The truck looks 3 years old instead of 11.

Looks great in keeping a factory look. The fronts installed perfect and tight fit. The rears were abit trickier because the top of the fender was badly rusted so I could not attach using the two top screws. Instead I used the two bottom screws and used Automotive Goop to secure and seal the top.
