Here's my truck with the new to me pro comp 1069's (picked them up on craigslist for a steal) and 33's, 2" level in front, 3" block in back.... Anyways cause they now stick out, I ordered a set of pocket style flares today.... Should I paint to match the silver, the blue, or leave them black?

Been thinking about painting the silver black too... But not sure that would look good or not.

Thx for any and all comments.

I agree.....black all around would look great. And I love those wheels too, I would give mine up for a set of those!

Black rockers, black flares, black bumpers. That's what I would do, and I am going to do except I don't have any flares. I am going to bed liner mine but I have heard not to use it on plastic (fender flares) due to flexing.

I like that price. Do they mount to the factory flare mounts, no drilling?

I haven't got them yet, but it did say no drilling uses factory mounting points (I think that means under the edge of fender, not on the sides) and tape....
