Opinions on Fender Flares vs. No Fender Flares

Just got new bushwackers the other day. Was running no fender flares for a while but I like it without and with fender flares. Not really sure what to decide on but the bushwackers give it a great look. Opinions?

 

Looks good either way, the Bushwackers you put on aren't the mega ones with the exposed bolts, almost looks factory.

 

Yeah they’re the pocket ones I accidentally got the 3 inch ones before thinking they were the right ones haha shoulda seen that

 

Fender flares and mud flaps save the paint job and reduce the need for truck wash.

 

Looks better with, and it protects your truck and other drivers, too.

 

I've got an 02 so I had them from the factory, but I think they go with the first gens really well, especially unpainted.

IMO it looks a lot better with them on your truck and I like the smaller ones more as well.

 

IMO looks better and the protection is worth it. Like others said it looks factory and with the right wheel and tire combo. I think if you color match them they would look fantastic.

 

Yeah color match would look sick but thing is my truck is different varying colors depending on the panel it may be a Snow White or a yellowing white because it was rebuilt before

 

Oh that make sense. If you keep them that black make sure to protect them with something other then armor all.

 

Now, drill some mud flaps into those bitches

Looks better with, I personally like the contrast.

 

I like the low profile flares. Like it’s been said they’re protected your paint.

 

Mud flaps are lame.

Fender flares do help keep the mess down. I can't even imagine what kind of mess it would be if I took mine off.

 

Bad

 

lmao... no doubt

 

I had color matched flairs, and they were okay, but I honestly prefer the black. I ended up coverting to black (plastidip) because the clear coat started peeling so I just sanded down and sprayed with the Dip.


This pic shows the bumper, but you can see the flairs, too. With the bumper especially the black flairs look better IMO.

 

Keep them on since u bought them

Being a wrapped truck makes it easy to colour match. My vote = Keep The Flares.
