Default Fender Flairs

guys, where do you get the fender flares that most of the newer GM trucks are coming out with? They are usually grey or black. I want to say they stick out about 1-2inches maybe?

Anyone sell these other than GM?

I bought a complete set of Pewter (pre-painted) factory flares off of Ebay a year or so ago...but when they came, I had my wife and son each hold one up to the front and back and I didn't like how they looked on a 2wd truck. I only paid like $100 or so...and got lucky enough to resell them on Ebay for like $135, which got me back my shipping fees.

Type in Silverado Flares on ebay. They are WAY cheaper than buying from the dealer.

I think styin concepts offers some aftermarket ones, but they are not as narrow as the factory ones. I prefer the factory ones myself.

I had bought the pewter ones with the plan of getting them painted to match. I think the body color flares look waaayy better than the black. BTW, my truck is Gray and the pewter flares would have never even came close to looking right. I say get 'em painted to match...or if you don't want to do that, (I wouldn't get any!)...get black.
