Default Black fender flares

So how do you think it would look if I painted my fender flares (or whatever there called) black instead of the silver they are.

I think it would be cool as hell as long as you also paint the rocker panel black also.

The grey part.

I think white and black look awesome together, so I would say go for it, as long as you have the grey painted black also.

So i'm gonna try to paint the flares this week and was wondering what kinda prep I need to do. I'm just using spray paint. I might paint the rocker panel also depending on the work i'll need to do.

first make sure there crazy clean use somethin like mineral spirits or maybe somethin weaker and then just use a real course sand paper and sand the plastic to scuff it up really good
it shouldnt be hard but it will take awhile and good luck
