Default Zr2 fender flares repainted - Anyone?

Hey,

Just wondering if anyone has repainted their Zr2 fender flares. The paint is peeling on mine so I will be repainting soon. I'm just curious if anyone has painted the flares the same color as the body. I have a black blazer and the lower piece is that dark gray. Looks fine but I was just curious if anyone has painted the zr2 package black (other body color) as opposed to the original gray color.

The GMC version of the ZR2s came with body colored flares. Also kiwiblazer has body colored flares, but theyre Japan/Euro style flares, not ZR2...still looks awesome though

I say go for it!

You just have to do the proper prep work and use the right paint. If you mix your own, you will need to use some flex additive to make sure that the paint does not crack as the flares flex.

Right, I've painted multiple vehicles as I was in Auto Collision school. I was just curious if anyone had done it. I totally forgot about the GMCs being painted the same color as the body. I think for now I will just repaint it the same color it is now.
