    The front flares are fairly common knock offs, but they don't fit all that well. I haven't seen any rear factory knock offs.

    Every flare is a completely different molding.

    Picking up a set of flares from someone off FB market place that is about a 1 hour drive each way. He is sending me pictures. Is there anything I should look out for on the insides that will prohibit these from attaching properly?

    Thanks for putting this list together.....
    For those that are wondering how much this would be total (but like ball park figures, such as myself)

    TOTAL= $700.00 (+- $20.00) approximate
    Plus your time of course!

    Thanks to this thread I went and managed to get a set of MGM flares for my 2021 SR from another TW member. Ordering other parts from the list now. I noticed a few on this thread did away with the Truck Bed Molding behind the rear tires. Advantages/disadvantages? Local deal site has them for $19.92 so $40 savings without them......

    Don't think there is an advantage or disadvantage when it comes to the molding. I think having them makes it look cleaner and finished. See how the truck looks without them after you install the flares and then decide whether or not you want to put them on.

    This.

    I eventually ran my truck flare-less and without the molding and I think it looked the best that way, but it's all about what you vibe with personally.

    There's no performance benefit whatsoever. I will say most people who do matte flares go for the molding to make it look more finished. The only thing is you can't keep the old moldings with the new flares.
