    i'm going black. The 2 tone trucks start at crease...not the lower moldings. I want to remove moldings and bedline crease down.

    Thanks for asking, Jon. I had no idea what pocket flares were either.

    I'm not a fan of pocket flares but they do look good on your truck.

    Pocket flares are my next purchase. Im gonna color match them though I think all the flat black stuff on my truck makes it look like an old cavalier without the bumpers painted

    How much did those cost you? Bushwacker? Whats the difference between the stock and "pocket" flares?

    i typically like the smooth ones better, but those look great on your truck!

    pocket flares have the "bolts". These are from a company called prestige. They are MUCH cheaper then buschwacker, and stick out 3.75".

    If memory serves correct, oem stick out 1.25", Bushwacker "factory" stick out like 1.75" , their pocket flares stick out 3.25" and cut-outs stick out 3.5"

    The ONLY complaint i have with these, is that they aren't as "show-quality" as buschwacker. They don't hug the body lines as well, and only attach with the plastic clips. There is no double stick tape. There is a thin strip along the edges, but that is for paint protection only. I'm going to be getting the bottom half of truck line-x'd, so I'm not going to bother painting these, I'll be 2-tone soon enough...and it'll fill any 'gap' problems.
