Default Painted Fender Flares

Anyone know of a place to buy OEM painted fender flares? Speciffically for an '04 Dakota. If I could buy just one that would be awesome, but it looks like most come in sets of four.

Thanks in advance!

check your local wrecking yards. They are the same for the durango as for the dakota so your chances of finding one are fairly high.

The Durango rear flares are different. They are split because of the door and they stop at the rear bumper.

True, I used the front fender flares off a durango and they worked fine on my dak.

Dodge use to sell them painted,.. Not no more.
Bone/yard is your best bet.

I was gonna check the junkyard just wasn't sure if I'd be able to find the color I need. It's silver metallic. The durango one's would probably fit then because its a passenger side front I need. Too bad Dodge didn't still sell them painted. I guess I could just buy one and have it painted. Not sure how much that would cost though. I'll check the junkyards first. Thanks for the replies.

It shouldnt cost that much to get it painted. Heck you could even do it yourself if u have a compressor and a paint gun!

Do you have a buddy with a paint gun. It wont take that long to do and a body shop shouldnt charge much just to spray a lil fender flare.

I have a compressor and a paint gun, but have never used it lol. If I can't find one at the local junkyards I'll try painting one myself.
