Fender flares for 2014-2018 Silverado

Define "properly." If I were to fix it PROPERLY, the rusty metal would be cut out and replaced with new, painted to match, and I would not want or need fender flares to cover anything up.

That's going to cost me a few thousand dollars, which I do not have or want to spend on this truck. It has already let me down twice in the last 1000 miles with stuck lifters. I just want to cover up the rust and pawn it off on some unsuspecting car salesman.

I presumed it was just surface rust bubbling the paint, not rusted through.

Not sure which google you're using, but the "5000 different options" are really like a dozen different styles from 100 different vendors, lol.

Although, I'm confused, you first said you were planning in "fixing" the rust (presumably not with a good finish or color matched, hence the need for flares) and said you were looking for something you liked.

Then you said you're just slapping them on to cover up the rust to sell it.

If the latter is the case, buy the cheapest ones you can find and add a for sale sign to your order and let er rip.

PS, still think the bushwhacker type wide flares look awkward with OE size wheels and no lift, so I'd go with skinny OE style looking flares.
