    I still stand by this ^

    How well do they match your shocks? They look like a different shade of blue. It could just be my laptop making it look different, though.

    They are close but not perfect. But I think the main reason it looks different is lighting. There's no light on the shocks and all the light on the rings.

    Thanks guys. It was a shot in the dark no one really knows how itll turn out till its actually done. the truck definitely has a different vibe up close. But I know as soon as I color match the fenders it's going to look more off. But none the less I am still super happy how they turned out and it's different. If I were to do it again I would have a white truck and order the exact powder coat instead of getting close.
