Anyone add these mods? I'm starting to think about these and wanted to see where to go and who to buy from. If anyone recommends any companies, please let me know.

I thought they came with them from the factory. Lol.

The skirts look pretty good...... street Scene makes some I think.

Whoops, looks like I need more :Caffeine: as I meant fender flare kits. Thanks for the info about the side skirts, I will start from there.

Xenon fender flares look good.

Xenon have great fit and finish, the problem is they dont line up well with the front cover. The Z71 Tahoes bumper cover is made to fit better with a flare. The Xenon and I think all the others (bushwacker etc) have an overhang where the meet the front bumper

The Z71 tahoe flares will have the same look to them, not fitting flush where the flare meets the bumpe cover, unless its a Z71 cover.

side skirts

here is a pic of my street scene side skirts that I just installed. They went on pretty easy. I made brackets to attached them to the original mounting holes for the side steps. Wasn't really too excited about using tape and screws. They won't fall off now.

Chevrolet offered the flare kit. I have the factory flare kit on my 07 LTZ. Fit perfect, no gaps. A lot like the xenon kit. When I bought my kit in late 07 it had to be painted to match. Came primed. I'll have to take a pic.

Yea ross lets see some pics. I'd love to put some fender flares on my leveled avalanche, but never did because of the alignment from the flare to the front bumper cover. Only solution is to get a z71 front bumper cover which I didn't want to do.
