Painted and installed eBay fender flares
Just got done installing these oem style fender flares I got off eBay for about $115 or so. Shout out to mbullock for giving me some advice on how to paint these. I was sent textured finish rather than smooth like I ordered, but mbullock gave me advice and I sprayed it with all professional supplies and it turned out really nice. The clear has a decent amount of orange peel due to the fact that the flares are textured. But all in all I'm very happy and they fit very good too. They have double sided tape on the back side but I used a rubber gasket off some bushwacker flares, rather than the tape to run along the edge to prevent rubbing. It fits super tight with the no drill hardware. The mudflaps took a bit to get them fit correctly and that was the hardest part. Pics below

thanks, I got the mud flaps from eBay as well. The holes didn't line up very good between the aftermarket flares and aftermarket mudflaps. I had to drill 2 new holes in the mudflaps to get them to use the existing hardware. But they were intended to be on a F150 with flares from the factory

Fine job Aaron! I take it that isn't a rattle can job. Makes me think I might like some flares like that.
