    So I am about to get some bushwacer pocket style flares.. My truck is a 13 taco that is black.. It would be an easy decision if I had any other color truck.. Do you guys think it would look ok if i just installed them onto my black truck unpainted.. Has anyone done this and have any pics? Im worried it may look silly or even cheap looking unpainted..

    Also thinking about getting one also, but I would get it painted as well. Where'd you get your flares and how much you paid for them if you don't mind sharing.

    Give them a call. They're half the cost of bushwhackers and look identical. Ours arent listed but are available. Youre welcome.
