Fender protection

I know I should of gotten flaps when I bought the truck but never got around to it. I keep the truck pretty clean and heavy wax on the lower corners of the fenders right behind the tires, but now it is time.
Other than fender flares...what other ideas have you guys done?
I was considering Rhino lining on the lower 8 inches of the fenders and doors...maybe just the fenders. Haven't decided yet.

So...recommendations? The lower 4 inches of the front fenders behind the tires is down to bare metal...about a 2 inch strip. Would like to protect that area and cover the metal to prevent rusting.

Thanks all!

Worth every penny.
Im about to do the rest of the parts i wanna do on Motorbug.
Rocker panels up to the body line back to the dually fenders and covering the fenders.
Also doing roof.

I did not use rhino. It does not hold up.
It was done in my bed before i got the truck and has failed.

The new stuff is made here in The Republic and is called LinerExtreme.
Good part a, part b composite stuff.

It has held up to me plowing into a bunch of rebar and twisted up cattle panels without leaving a scratch on the liner.

So far just my front fenders and hood are done.
