Looking for some FRF advice.

Currently running 39x13.5x17 with Deberti fenders/bedsides. Seems like every day I notice another small chip in the black paint. 90% occurring in the front aspect of besides. Options I’m considering:

- Repair chips, wrap with clear PPF

- Mudflaps in front? Would need to modify a universal product to fit, and generally not a huge fan of the flap

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Really the only option is to repair and wrap. You could still get them with a front mud flap.

Side question: mind sending some pictures of the front inner fender liners? I want to run the Deberti glass but haven't found a solution for the front liners. Thanks.

I'd repair, and do clear PPF wrap. As far as that one pic, any tire that size will throw a dirt shower. Would you mind sending a pic of your truck. The rear looks amazing and am curious.

Here’s a pic of the front fender, but I don’t have liners. That’s a work in progress.

I saw a Saleen a number of months back and should have taken a picture of what they did. But they took a stock liner, trimmed the outside and added a 3" strip to go straight and match the new profile.
