I did this with my OEM fenders. Used Simple Green degreaser to clean them then sprayed them with Dupli Color Truck Bed Coating (blue can). They lasted at least the 3 years I had them one (moved to different fenders) when I gave them away they still looked great.

It looks more complicated than it actually is. Just some bolts and a bunch of plastic clips. Wouldn't be a bad idea to have extra clips on hand for the re-install.

Definitely get extra clips. you can buy them in a kit. They will break no matter how careful you are.
I did this with the bushmaster extended pocket flares, but for the cost of the bushmasters I should have kept factory flares. Used Raptor Liner. Degreased flares, cleaned with alcohol, plus also used u-pol adhesion promoter. The liner is holding up great. Just be sure to let it cure for a few days before reinstall to ensure that it keeps a good adhesion.
