Default Monotone Laramie with flares

Just added these factory flares to my monotone Laramie. Anybody ever find a good splashguard that works with the flares? Also, I have a set of the molded Mopar splashguards (front and back) that are in excellent shape that I had to pull off to fit the flares on. PM me if you are interested.

So those are OEM flares that you had painted to match your truck?

They are OEM flares that are molded in color. They are made for the TRX4 since the accent color on the TRX4 is the same color as my truck. Can only be done if you have a mineral gray metallic truck.

Yeah. Dodge only molds them in the two two-tone accent colors. Light Sandstone for the Laramie and Mineral Gray for the TRX4. If you want any other colors you would have to have them painted.

What no yellow??? It seems like the OEM flares have a lot of texture to them. Since I would have to paint, I will have to check out the aftermarket flares before I purchase.

I did the same on my black truck. I think Dodge is missing the boat here. The monotones with flares look absolutely awesome. Well done.

I'd like to see a pic of a Sport with flares just to see how it looks at the front fender since the Sport's front bumper and fender are flush. The factory flares would stop at the fender.

Anyone have a pic of the front of a Sport with flares? It's hard to see on the blue one posted above.

Oh, to the original poster, the truck looks great! That's the first thing I thought my truck was missing.
