Default fender flare problems

i have a 05 with no flares, due to being hit in the rear i bought a new(ish) bed, and not realizing it, it has the holes for fender flares. so now im stuck in the positing to either A) attempt to fill the factory holes or B) find OEM flares and drill out my front fenders. i have come to the conclusion finding OEM ones is alot harder then i thought it would be, ebay has nothing but the tape on ones which im nervous about buying. any ideas??

Any will fit. Just drill about 6 holes in the fender lip and thn paint. Use christmas tree push pins to attatch. The front will have a small screw that helps to hold them on and utilize.

when you say fender lip, do you mean in the wheel well?

Yes, the 1" lip that is flat and parallel to the tire. Not the side of the fender, the wheel well lip.
