they are not going to mount like your factory flares. i am pretty sure the holes in fender lip will not line up. something wrong with your flares or do you just want painted flares? ones like like that are all over Ebay, others on here have used some like them. you can pull your flares and paint them. you do know that factory flares have holes in the fenders.

As said they don't have mount holes like your oem ones. The kit comes with self tapping screws to put into the bottom lip of the wheel well. I installed a set and painted them but used 3m tape with only one screw on each (where the mudflats mount) and they've held up well. My personal opinion is they will be a huge hassle just to change colour of your flares. Good luck either way. These are decent oem looking for the price.

trade someone for OEM and make a little profit in the process
