Fender flares are accessories designed to be an extension of trucks and SUVs. Flares fit directly over the wheel wells and are contoured to match the same body lines as the vehicle. Fender flares are available in a wide range of styles, colors, and textures to match a desired look. The most common methods of mounting factory fender flares onto vehicles are clips, screws, rivets, and push retainers. These items are frequently sold as kits.
