I know but they also have the traces of turning white.

The Texas sun does no good tho the trucks. And i also like the finish that stuff leaves...

They will look the same as the bumper cover!

On the bumper looks good, but on the gas lid looks terrible. Looks like you replaced it from another truck without painting it first.

love it to, although I have a black truck and it would not do the same for me on the gas cap. but good idea for some other parts in the future.

I like it, I was thinking about getting a black locking cover for my truck. I think it will contrast well with the tan (Pearl Almond Clearcoat) especially as I am putting Mopar Fender flares on and I plan to leave them unpainted for the contrast. I also hope to install lighted black running boards when finished with flares. Comments invited. Thanks in advance for any input.

I dont think I've seen a 3rd gen with running boards. Just be careful if you offroad. I'm thinking about putting a set of step bars on mine.
