Fender Flares
Hi,
I have some rust over my rear wheel arches. I don't want to spend the money on a whole new bed, although I know this is the real way to do it. I was thinking of just grinding the rust out, priming the heck out of them with rustbullet and filling and just covering them with a set of the most discreet fender flares I can find (maybe like these: eBay Motors: Bushwacker OE Style Fender Flares Ford Super Duty 99-07 (item 110350159084 end time Mar-13-09 09:22:57 PDT)). I guess I would just paint them red to match the truck, would it be really hard to paint them well? Are there any different fender trim types that are less noticeable than these?
Thanks

That's about right for Bushwacker, price wise. I have them and I think they look great. The OEs are just wide enough to cover the majority of my tires and looked the best on my truck compared to Street Flares and both of Warn's Flares.
