    I just bought OE fender flares for an 00' yukon - has anyone ever had fender flares painted to match their vehicle color? I want to see what a price estimate may be... also, should they be installed before painted?

    Bigger tires on stock rims ..gerald?

    well thanks, I ended up getting the regular Bridgestone Dueler AT's instead of the revos, they look just as cool - and they cost $200 less and they have the same 50k warranty. Anyways, the 285 75 r16 fit just fine, and theres no way they look as wide as 33x12.50 Going from 265 70 r16...

    Repainting a black brush guard?

    so if I take the guard off, give it rubbing and then apply regular rustoleum, it should look good? How long is spray paint going to last? I am thinking of taking it off and ordering a WARN light bar if this paint idea does not work out.
