Hi everyone.

when I first got my truck awhile ago, one of the first things I did was put the pocket style rivet Fender flares on as I loved the look. Only problem was that as time went on, I noticed that they were rubbing up against the side of the fender where they met, even with the included rubber tube liner, and was causing the clear coat to rub off and eventually the paint. Is there any sort of solution to this? I would love to go back to running them as I don’t see the fiberwerx fenders as daily driver material.

Thanks in advance!

Factory flares are put on with a 3M double sided tape ... Your dealer’s body shop should have it ... Or an auto paint and supply store if you have one ... That way they “stick” and don’t rub
