Fender Flare thread. Lets see them

My XLT does not have factory flares. I have found a set for cheap but Im not sure how I would go about attaching them to the truck since I dont have the holes in the fenders. Not to mention, I dont think they would do me much good considering my tires stick out about 3in from the truck.. Anybody have any recommendations? and pics? Im not a huge fan of the ones that look like they have bolts in them.. But I have seen some that look pretty decent.

Bushwacker makes some clean designed flares without the fake bolts.

Here's mine with the Bushwacker OEM style.

I had the area behind the flares sprayed with Line X because I was afraid of the paint getting scratched up. It turned out pretty good but the flares are very slightly distorted from the extra thickness behind them. Finished the truck off with some Gatorback flaps.
ETA. While the fenders were getting sprayed I had them do inside the rear wheelwells and had them spray in front of the rear tires to create a rock guard like what is behind the tires. It didn't cost much extra since they had to mask the truck off anyway.
