Have a say in what i paint my flares!

I'm about to start a massive upgrade on my truck. The first things will be the 5 spokes, 883s and some limited trim, woo woo! I already have a soft appointment set with the factory painter and i should be getting this done within the next 2 weeks. anyways, i just defaulted to black when color came up, but it got me to thinking....what do you think I should paint the trim? Should I keep it the same color as my truck or something different? Everything that's done to my truck has just been a culmination of things i've seen on here, so i thought i'd make this mod a little bit more community oriented, HELP ME DECIDE! haha thanks

If not putting them on is an option, I vote for that. Personally I hate the look of them.

hey roor, can you snap a pic of the mounting positions on the rear door flare. I want to fix mine up, but have no clue how it actually mounts..thanks.

oh, i say paint them black, a solid black rig will look way better than two tone

If your rig is all black I say keep it that way,

if you were two toning it I would think you would want to include the 2 tone on the truck...

I have debated painting mine graphite like some of the factory accents..

I would leave the flares in natural black, then when the get scuffed up, gouged etc,. they would look the same afterwards.

Except for the damaged area.
