Question Fender Flares??

What kind of Bushwackers should I go with.. Bolt on affect? Or just the sleek? And should I go black or the color of my truck which is stone white? I have to get some because my paint is getting dinged up BAD!

It all depends on what you want. Personally though as a previous white truck owner, I'd say to go with black. The only way I'd might consider color match is if I was street truckin it.

I like mine. Mine are painted to match the color of the truck and they are the pocket flares so you see the rivets. It looks more offroad that way. Also, I prefer painted. It looks more complete. There are some I have seen, that if it's not painted to match, it looks lazy.

I have the same metallic grey as you Rizam and was thinking of getting the flares put on. Are those bushwakers and how do you get them color matched? Are they sold in different colors? Do you mind if I ask how much they cost?

Ya I really like the bolt on look, just wondering if they sell them color matched to my truck or if I have to take em somewhere to get painted?

i've seen some dealers on ebay paint to match, but you pay big money. i've been researching Warn fender flares keeing them black to match my Line-X'ed bumpers. what i don't understand is why they are so expensive they made out of some spacecraft polymer used in the spacestation for the price you pay you can get a programmer or intake. Why? you pay top dollar for a nice truck extras should be reasonable my .02 cents

I took mine to a local paint shop after shopping around for the best price. All they need is the paint code off of your truck which you can get off the sticker on the door. Definitely completes the look of the truck.
