Has anyone tried to paint these flares to match truck?

I work in a body shop and painted my set of flares to match. They come primed with a smooth black primer and just needed to be lightly scuffed before they are painted. I am happy with the quality and fit.

Well, considering they are plastic, I'm not sure if the paint would flake. Certainly the front would not be able to be painted. I don't think this would work and I, personally, would not try it, but I am not an expert. Wish I could be of more help.

The trucks are alloy, very durable. The graphic is not a sticker, its to be painted on.

YES, I spray painted and its gorgeous. Spray paint is better for this type of metal.

I have no idea. I would suggest calling the company or taking the paint to a craft store and just match it

If you are talking the stock fender flares that are part of the box, then yes. If you are talking about after market flares that were added, I do not know. My truck has the newer body style that has the flares built into the box and they fit perfect

The ones I got came with just black. I think you can have them painted but the black looks pretty decent.

Yes, I used acrylic paint on sponges to "stamp" sea animals on mine. They looked great.

Not sure what you have, but I had plastic molded mudflaps with white Ford logo. Had to remove them to install these flares. My flaps may be possible to reinstall but I opted just to leave off.

They were put on a 2000 Chevy S10 Extended Cab W/O Flares and a Chevy 2003 S10 Crew Cab W/Flares. So I would say yes.

We haven't. Ours are aluminum oxide finish. Your best bet would be to contact the manufacturer and check their recommendations.

Spray paint yes, also be sure not to screw down to tight because they will crack. Looks great.

I haven't tried to, but I think it'll depend on what type of paint you put on it. I've honestly never seen "painted" holds. I've seen plastic holds that are already colored, not painted.I'd rather keep them the way they are. They look more real and fun this way.

maybe mine is different from the previous poster...on mine, you can't...they are welded on...you could probably rip them off, but that would mess up the paint job and possibly cause rust and corrosion.

Haven't painted them myself but as they are made of plastic you should use a plastic primer first ot a direct to plastic paint. Hope this helps

No, afraid not. I wonder if you could paint them with magnetic paint though?
