    It came oem chrome, I took it off and painted it with bedliner. Still on the fence if I like it or not. Its super easy to take off and paint, I would recommend sanding with 220, and using an adhesion promoter before spraying since it is all plastic. Saves you a bit of money instead of buying a new one.

    Edit: The texture and the matte finish of the bedliner kinda makes it look cheap/ "bro-ie". Wishing I had gone with a semi gloss to keep more of a oem plastic look like a brand new pair of fender flares would look like. Just my opinion though

    I need y'all to help me make a decision. I've got my 15x8 Mickey Thompson's to put them on and my 3 inch toytec is on the way. Should I go 33x12.5 or 32x11.5? Help me make up my mind!

    LT tire E load rated for our truck is 35 front 40 psi rear according to what discount tire checked on system with year model and current wheel size , So I asked them 45psi all the way around and drives nice... 2 to 3 psi loss for every 10 degrees of temperture. Dropping.,., keep warm ❤

    I know right. My door says different but goes with the OEM R15 rim, dealer install these new tires with R16 4runner wheels but What got me thinking was the E load has 10 ply so is a mud tire and the sidewall says max. Psi 80, so I just did internet, phone and in person research, been running underinflated.. oopps.now I learned
