Color Matching TRD Offroad Fenders

Color matched fenders are gonna be as popular as color matched grilles were for the 2nd Gen. I can already see all the "WTB" threads lol

 

No, it's not. Also, use commas.

 

1st gen OR = black fenders...

 

I disagree, even look at other manufacturers. The nissan pro4x trucks have black over fenders, the chevy offers them as options, as does ford, etc... whether someone likes them or not is simply opinion.

Me personally, i associate them with an off road truck for obvious reasons; not a base model.

 

To me, it looks unfinished. Like having no money to paint Bushwackers. Like the front bumper on the SR, just looks unfinished to me.

 

Just buy a black truck

 

My 02' SR5 4x4 2.7L had black fenders.

 

The black fender flares are part of the rugged styling and go well with the black accented wheels.

 

Why not just call parts and tell them you want to order "sport" fender flares? Will be factory for sure....that is assuming they are available pre-painted.

 

Just pointing out that this isn't the first time they've been used on the TRD models.

 

Black fenders FTW!!

 

had mine done a few weeks ago at my buddy's body shop, turner out nice.

 

I actually have the grille surround off, cut out for the new grille and in for painting white right now too, so we'll see what turns out like

 

Looks much better color matched

 

Aftermarket flares are generally sold black only. However some sights will ship them painted. For a hefty fee

 

The off-road does not come with colour-matched fender flares.

Not all of them. And IMO they look much better color-matched.

 

Interesting. I thought all the 1st gen TRD's had them. Thanks for the pics!

 

1st gen TRD off road models came with painted and not painted flares depending on what package you had on the truck.
