    What you can add depends on whether you have ny bolt holes punched into the sheet metal, or whether you can find something you like that's installed with adhesives, or if you're willing to screw into the body.

    First determine: What do you have? Do yopu have punched provisions?

    If not .... Are you willing to punch provisions into the body? If yes, you can choose any OEM option, but you'll want to template off another truck to get spacing correct, or the flares will waffle.

    If not .... are you willing to screw into the body? If yes, you can use either the welt-style chrome strips that screw up under the lip of the fender edge like the Darryl Waltrip package used, or potentially find a screw-on aftermarket fender that installs with sheet metal screws.

    If not, you can choose any option that uses 2-sided adhesive, which is what some of the specialty packages used, potentially the X-SP trim package, the Ivan Allen trim package, or any number of aftermarket flares. Don't discount 2-sided adhesive, it's what a LOT of manufacturers use to hold on trim, flares, skirts, etc.
