Default Wheel Flares with "rivets"?

Has anyone seen any aftermarket wheel flares that look like they have rivets on them? (similar to the wheel flares on the Nissan Frontier)

Yeah those. I found these which look even sweeter in my opinion:


Now, where to buy online? 4wheel parts doesn't seem to carry these style with the pretend rivets.

i believe those are bushwackes but might be wrong. but i believe the catch to those is that they are cut in flaires. you actualy have to cut out the finder and place those on there. i could be compreetly wrong but i believe that is the case. look up bushwacker finder flares.

Hey, There is a small article on them in the July issue of Truckin I believe. Apparently there is no drilling required, I guess just the look of rivets. I also believe they are bushwackers.

Yeah, i didnt think there was any cutting involved either. I think one of the first Chevys/GMCs to have them as the Oakley (the sunglass company) War Wagon. I think there are still pics up on it, on oakley.com but im not too sure.
