Paint or not to Paint???

HiggySTL · 08-07-2007, 11:15 AM

I am looking to get Bushwacker fender flares. Since they come matte black, should I bother color matching them Galaxy black to match the truck, or would it look fine black on black?

Anyone have a galaxy black Titan with non-painted fender flares? If so could you please post a few pics? I've tried searching but found nothing. Thanks.

They will be Flat Black. What kind of look are you going for? I think they would look good if your going for the function over form look w/ some black wheels and a lift.

I'm keeping the stock wheels, and getting the Kumho KL78's (325/60/18) with a 2" mini lift. Want the Bushwackers, but was wondering if the flat black fender flares will look alright on galaxy black.

Well they will contrast with the gloss black but might look really good like that.

If it were mine I would have them painted.

They are actually more of a satin finish. Try doing a search here, there are several members with flares, some painted, some not. Mine aren't painted, and that's how I wanted them.

Thanks for the inputs Sammy and jEzTeR, I like the look of the black fenders on Smoke, Red, White, but I was hoping someone had a picture of black on galaxy black. Needless to say, I am hoping to aviod the additional cost of painting them.
