What do you guys think? Does it add to it, Take away from it, or are they not noticeable. Subtleness was my goal.
Excuse the dirty tires

I like how you two toned them to match the truck's paint. Looks good.

Nice job

I think they look great. I was "iffy" on the fact that you were putting flares on a 2WD, but now that it's said and done, I think it looks excellent. I really like how you two toned them. If it were me though, I'd probably lose the step bars. I think the truck would look much cleaner without them. Just my opinion though.

two toned flares look excellent .... another vote for removing the step bars though, unless you are 4'10" tall

I would love to take them off but my mom can't get in and out. I think I'm gonna take off those black door things and paint my door and tailgate handle

In that case leave them on. Gotta take momma for a ride in the fast lane sometimes.

It would look great with painted handles and no door accents/molding. I sau go for it!

Do you happen to remember who the dealer on E Bay was?
