I have recently come to own a 2003 Z71 with cladding, running boards and NO fender flares.  I want to add mud flaps/splash guards and I'm confused by which one would work well.  I went to GM parts direct and they had a few in stock none of which specifically mentions cladding but maybe because I entered Z71 they assume it has cladding?  Has anyone order any for this model?  Also has anyone tried these Husky's:
Front Mud Guards - Mud Guards fit front and rear.  Item# 56311

When you installed the rear did you just drill into the cladding?

Any you like better than the above?

Thanks -
 
GM made Caldding mudflaps from Cladding material.

These are the only ones I know of made for Cladded AVY.

 
Are any of these the correct part:

Nothing showed for your link.

and I do not see cladded mud flaps listed for 2003 on that site.
Look here at what the 2002 FRONTS look like which were cladded only.

notice the bottoms that have the "TABS" like other cladding.

Maybe others fit but I have no idea.

SEe below for mine from way back in 2002:

Thank you!  So just to be clear I could order two sets of theses and install them front and rear, correct?  Also, is the rear drilled and screwed into the the cladding?
 
I doubt they fit the rear as they are special molded to fit existing cladding.

DO NOT BUY for REAR.

Cladding is not drill for the screws.

Flaps came with Self tapping screws and are held by screwing into existging plastic.

I also doubt they have them in stock in since these are for 2002 only so cladding color is lighter.

Best bet is to look at local junkyards or online junkyards

 
You may want to look at the for sale section .  :wave:
 
I am looking for the same. I have a 2004 Avalanche with cladding. I found this and they say its mud flaps for cladding. http://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemDescV4&item=391773909922&category=50455&pm=1&ds=0&t=1517461082000&ver=0&cspheader=1
 
Been there done that.  Looked everywhere.  With no luck.  Finally,  with my persistence. , I found original mud flaps for my 02 2500 on ebay.  Sorry to say ,I bought the last set( front and rear) the gentleman had. Match truck perfectly.
