Hey guys, I'm looking for a quality set of discrete fender flares (not the ones with the fake bolts) and splash guards for my 2009 Silverado 2500. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Discrete fender flares?

Wtf is that?
The ones that aren't 4" wide off the fender with fake a$$ bolts in them. :ROFLMAO:

Seriously though, looking for similar to OEM flares. Just need some protection on exposed metal around fender opening since I live and drive a lot of gravel. I'll be adding splash/mud guards to them too, so need to be solid.

Are you just looking to protect the rim of the wheel well and first couple inches of fender? Or do you want a certain amount of flare to block debris thrown from wider tires?
If you don’t need the extra flare I would suggest a Line-X application. I have had Line-X sprayed in and around the wheel wells, on the rocker panels and bottom 5 inches of doors, and as a rock/chip protector across front of hood on three different trucks. I have always been happy with the durability, protection and rust prevention it provides. Also like that it completely adheres to the body panel with no chance for moisture or debris to get trapped behind.
Sorry I’m not much help on fender flares but when I was doing the same search you are I ended up with spray on protection and am happy with it.
