Default Bushwackers wore through paint right down to metal .

Hey guys I bought a set of bushwacker fender flares. I ended up having a peek where they seal against the truck body and it has wore a fine line right all the way around ,and through the paint down to the metal . Now my question is , can I get just these areas touched up professionally, or do I have to get the whole truck painted ? Also , if I left this issue unpainted can it rust the body of my truck ?
Thanks for your help !

if there is bare exposed metal then yes it will rust, and the surrounding paint will begin to bubble from there. A body shop can repair that for cheap money.
