Default Has anyone added the Laramie flares and paint?

I really want to add the Laramie flares and lower paint to my 09 1500 slt. I have been wanting to do it for a while now. Trading it in on a Laramie is out of the question

Has anyone ever added these parts? Where did you get the flares?

Default Laramie Flares

Hello,
I did this upgrade on my 2010 QC. It was all grey, and I had it painted Dodge silver on the bottom and bought the fender flares online. It wasn't cheap, but it came out great! It made a BIG difference in how the truck looks.

I seem to remember the flares running somewhere around $300.00 delivered. Then of course, the paintwork...

Joe

Where did you find the flares for $279? Looks Like They are way over $300 and close to $400.

Do any of them come painted gold like the Laramies?

Default These?

What about these?

They are Genuine Mopar. No Drilling! The painting thing is another story.

I must say, I do like the way they look. It gives the truck a beefy look.

The flares don't require drilling. They adhere using double sided tape along the perimiter of the outer edge and they use the existing holes for the splash guards inside the wheel wells.

Default Trying this with pics..

Trying to send before/after pics. No drilling as been mentioned. Existing holes and 3M tape, which tends to sag a bit after a while. Very happy with mod and paint job though!
