Guys,
I'm positive that there are others like me that purchased a new truck (2023 Laramie 1500 Ecodiesel in Patriot Blue-5'7" bed) without any flares that wanted to add flares to protect inner fender edges. I travel to my cabin in Quebec 3 times a summer driving 1.5 hours on gravel logging roads. Most of the roads we can drive 40-45mph but you can hear the gravel being kicked upward. This will be the 1st summer to take this truck up north. It does have the inner wheel well plastic liners and small plastic rocker covers but I want more protection for the fender edges. I am not lifting the truck or putting on large aggressive tires--mostly a pavement truck--1st Ram and love the ride and 24-34mpg.
So--I have been looking at several models and want as close to OEM as possible--certainly at this time not interested in paying $1500 for Mopar OEM painted flares.
Close I can find are these: For 19-24 Dodge Ram 1500 OE Style Smooth Matte Black Fender Flares W/ Mud Guard | eBay

What are you doing then for mudflaps that fit flares since it looks like you loose the tiny rocker protectors?

Certainly only want to do this once. Help with pics and knowledge is greatly appreciated.
Getting ready to order a bed cap to be able to haul items to camp for 2 week stays since the nearest gas station and grocery store is about 2hrs on those same gravel roads.

Thanks 5th Gen 1500 owners.
David in NE Ohio.
