What seller on ebay?

I'm ready to buy these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=220342075338

and paint them myself using the Duplicolor matched spray. I re-painted my side molding and it looks like it's stock so it should be ok for the flares too. I'm king of the spray can!

Duplicolor does make a nice product for something coming out of a spray can. I sprayed my front spoiler with their products and it came out real nice.

I like them, but I think they would look cleaner if they were painted to match the truck. They wouldn't stand out quite as much. That just MY opinion though. Its your truck, if YOU like it thats all that matters.

I just bought the same flares. They look sick and weren't terrible to install, but when I got mine they were warped all to hell. I spent the better part of an hour trying to warp them back. I may have just gotten a bad batch too though.

Thanks man, NOW GET OUT AND VOTE FOR ME!!! LOL
I think your truck looks just fine as it is. Not overdone on chrome nor overdone on black. Its a nice balance and a bit different. Most people are doing all chrome or all black. You did something a hair different than the norm..looks good.
