+1. I hate to agree w/ Bill, but I do on both counts. I like the stock burgundy by itself, or your present 2-tone.

Well if your gonna repaint or re-touch... keep the flares off and color match the bumper, plastics and wheels the same color silver. If your going to go throught the work I think it would set it off nice IMO. The truck still looks good either way.

I'm hoping to do my first real painting in the next couple weeks. Repainting my hood. Depending on how that goes will be a real good indication of what I attempt from there.

I wouldn't get rid of the factory colors. Pull the flares, and paint the front bumper pewter. Call it done.

it looks great without the flares nut im sure when its not in a picture you can easily tell all of the scratches from them

What did you use when buffing? I know the scratches from flares can run pretty deep, but if that's the main reason you put the flares back on maybe some additional effort can fix the paint. I've done a few vehicles like this and have had pretty good success.

FWIW I like the wheels too.

Personally I like them on.... I like the contrast you get with the two-tone!

I used a 3M rubbing compound. Some fairly aggressive stuff. I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it. I might have been able to get it out but honestly didn't like the look. I like the flares.

I am going to extend the pewter around the truck. I'm just dreaming of a complete color change for now. I'm not ready to spring for a complete color change yet.
