To color match or not to color match?

So I just purchased bushwacker fender flares for my 2018 Sierra and debating whether or not to keep them black or color match them. Money isn't an issue as my buddy owes me a favor and agreed to paint them at no charge but I just dont know which would look better.

I say color match, think they would look great painted same color as truck.

Color match.  Since over time the black on them will fade and you have to take really good care of them compared to color matched ones.

Theres a local guy where I live that has a white gmc that has them color matched. It looks odd at first because I'm not used to seeing it that way, but, really, it looks like it SHOULD be that way on higher trim trucks. 

 

I say go for it!

I had a hard time paying for the bushwackers so I bought RJD Fenders off of ebay that are actually sold under the name true edge elsewhere. I knew I wanted them painted before I bought them and found a local guy to paint them for 200. Total cost less than 500. I'm happy with them but with this offset I'm still gonna have to add some type of splash guard to them. I don't like the notched look around the fuel fill on some so these worked for me and added almost 3" of tire coverage. I say paint them unless you're gonna beat em up. adc49e557018f3a27d8ce67c3c40c3f9.jpg7076b7c840ca6f091a48c445df097c8d.jpga87d0bc690603fc75088ad0b8e3755ed.jpgb4be0d6cb246c30b19f2cbb58e17f297.jpg

Got any front shots to see the overhang with those flares? Also a shot of the FabFour bumper, or your whole truck lol ?
