Ace Hardware in Highlands Ranch has a great selection of stainless steel and chrome hardware to choose from.

Which reminds me.................we are anxiously awaiting "the great reveal" on your project..............c'mon, the suspense is killing us.

From the other thread about flares on here, someone mentioned nutzerts.. I followed that and did some searching and came up with this old post on another EB site that I never knew existed. lol..

They used Nutzerts on the bedrails for the hardtop as well which would be a neat thing to me. I'd install some hex head screws in the bed after the top was off, leaving a cleaner look. They would also work on the flairs. It would be more of a PIA to install but I think using those with appropriate screw hardware would look cool and clean.

I did stainless hex heads, can be pricey, but I got mine from the Hut

its a lot cleaner than rivets and simple to install as well
