- In todays video we finally take off the fender flares for those that wanted to see what it looks like!
This can definetly be a scary thing to do because best case you'll have a wear line and worse case you'll have rotted fenders!
Honestly the only reason I would recommend taking these off is to clean underneath and reinstall them. Probably better off not risking taking them off at all.
I give you props for constantly trying things and making your trucks look better. But, I like it better with the flares on. I think color matched would look great.
Looks good with out the flares. But I think once you paint the truck and paint match the flares it will look amazing
It looks good either way, but I personally prefer it with the flares. I vote for getting them color matched and put them back on.
Keep the flares! Flares look great especially when color matched! Get some new bed rail caps and she be looking slick
Color matched wheel flares, handles and mirror caps. Personally i like the bed cover. Gorgeous truck btw. Even if the paint is not perfect. After all it is a truck of course
It looks amazing I just bought a 2001 Chevy extended cab for my first truck this last Saturday
Nice that’s what I have
I've had my 01 Silverado Z71 since about 2009 and can honestly say it's been the best truck I've ever owned. Other than having to replace the transmission (4L60E) 9 different times, since going with a built 4L65E I have had few issues with it. Still running strong at almost 300k miles too.
@@TheWolfMatt nine times?!?! How on earth lol
@@ThatBlueHoe I was towing well over the weight the trucks was rated for. 😅
Without the flares reminds me of a 2wd. Color match will be nice but I like stock matte finish also
Amazing. Definitely like it without the flairs!
I love the flares, but I’d color match before putting back on
I like it with the flares on. I have a two-tone 2002 Silverado with the flares, I love the look of it.
I like the flares un painted, adds contrast and if you ever actually drive off road they don't chip. My Bushwacker flares are unpainted for that reason, I'm constantly on dirt, gravel roads and paint chips bad. And I'm a car painter so I could paint them but left them the flat back.
'Goo gone' works great for getting stuff like that adhesive off without breaking out any tools.
You should come up to northern Ohio to see all the rust... went down to Alabama last week and was amazed by all the clean fenders you guys have down there!
Flares looked better on it paint match em and they’ll be perfect🙌🏾
Looks so much better without flares
Nice videos once again! I like it better with the fender flares. Could you wet sand the lines out of the clear coat where the fenders were?
What. Kind of tires do u have on ur truck ??????? Those tires are nice I would like to put those tires on my 2005 Silverado
I like it better with the flares, but it’ll look even better once you color match them
The black fender flares are ugly. Color matched always looked nice.
Dude the channel is popping off been here since the begging brotha keep it up !
My 04 Sierra didn’t have them, I’m up north so if it did I’d be scared to see underneath what was left. A friend of mine put them on his truck to cover the rust in order to pass out inspection lol
I’ll buy the tonneau bed cover if you’re trying to get rid of it!!
Looks awesome, definitely need to paint the flares💪🏻
Looks great either way. When are you gonna de badge the tailgate 👀
Great content! Btw who needs safety glasses when you can squint while using that polishing wheel lol Can’t wait till see the next upgrades
safety squints
Do the 2014 style back bumper it will fit make it look more modern
I found your channel by looking up reviews on the “range technology” device. I really need to know if it would worked plugged into a OBD2 splitter cable. But it’s a great looking truck. Would get the fender skirts whatever u wanna call them match the trucks paint and put them back Just my opinion
Nice! Looks better w/o the flares.
What type of rims and tires are those on the truck
Looks pretty good without the flares but i liked the look with them on much better but they need to be color matched
You should be using compound first then polish... it will look much better. There is a learning curve but once you learn how you can make a truck look new.
Paint match the flares and put them back on. Truck is clean!
I prefer the fenders but definitely prefer them color matched
Looks better without fender flares
It looks real good without the flares.
My 2006 Silverado 1500HD has a color matched bumper bad and fender flares. I think personally they look great color matched.
Crazy how much better it looks without the flares. Nice truck!
Looks good but I'm still team fender flare all the way
Color match the flares and stick em back on
Looks really damn good! It’s actually great to watch your videos because it’s my way of not only learning how to detail but enjoy watching too. If that makes any sense but yeah absolutely 100% really clean man.
Looks way cleaner in my opinion
Surprised that it looks that good. If you get flares again, will you get wider ones? Trucks are work horses. Not show ponies. Leaving all the "character" marks on mine, (2006 Silverado Z71.)
The factory flares look great on trucks with 2-tone paint or if the flares are painted body color. The plastic flares are terrible though.
I have the same exact same pickup truck as you but 2wd 2 wheel drive and mine is a 2001 and I have a flowmaster FX dual exhaust system on my truck like you have a dual exhaust system on yours but mine sounds a lot better than yours I'm telling you rip your dual exhaust system off of it and get a flowmaster FX dual exhaust. I've had an exhaust system exactly like yours before this I was satisfied with it but I wasn't happy with it I'm absolutely happy with this system. Stock horsepower with my rig 5.3 l V8 285 horsepower Stock after putting the dual exhaust and in my air intake system the truck is cranking 312 HP and 390 ft lb of torque. A definite increase in power my question for you what kind of tires do you have on that pickup. My truck has p 235 75 16s on my truck right now that's what it says to have on the truck on the side of my door. I'm just curious if a two-wheel drive pickup truck and have the same size tires you have on your rig.????
Absolutely beautiful 😍 Truck my next pickup truck will be identically like yours a four-wheel drive you have no idea what it's like driving a 2 wheel drive pickup truck in New England ❄️ 🌨️ it's not fun hi to throw 600 lb of weight in the back and I have to have snow tires and my next pick up is definitely going to be a 2006 GMC Sierra 4-wheel drive I won't get anything newer than an 06 Sierra after that I just think GM went downhill after that. And that instrument cluster that you installed on your truck looks absolutely gorgeous
Without flares just makes it blend in with any other truck. Throw them back on painted.
Put them back on.
It might not be a terrible idea to buff and polish the entire truck out before you decide to repaint it. You would be surprised at how much you can get out. Great video by the way, personally I’m about the stance so I think it looks best with the flares off but they definitely do look good with painted flares.
No flares the move
I never like flares but that truck needs them for some reason after color matching them theyd be amazing
lmfscrew hey bro loving your vids man especially the short with your daughter's reaction ti your song. I have my first baby a girl as well, her name is Rhodie. Just beautiful to seebrother. But bro on the repaint idea I think it would be cool to upload a video on color ideas and taking suggestions. Maybe the old original forest green for that generation that GM used to do. Larry is green but still super sick. Also red for that generation just reminds you of the fire department and white just looks contractor status. Anyway man keep up the great work and look forward to the next one 👍
I don’t know I like the fender flares. I have a 99 Toyota Tacoma pre-runner with fender flares that are colored matched. I think if you are gonna keep the fender flares color match them. But I just don’t like the gunk that builds up underneath them
Bro it looks like a whole new truck, I hope the flares never come back lol it's stupid clean
Good vid much appreciated. Like your rims. Would you provide name etc info. want them on my 21 sierra. thanks
Leave em off .. also take off the Z71 sticker... just my opinion. Beautiful truck !!
So much better without the flares!!!!!! Not a grandpa truck no more. And keep the bed cover with a flush mount tool box
Living up north in Delaware the fenders rust with or without the fender flares my 2000 silverado rusted and cost way to much to fix so just knocked the loose rust out body filler and put fender flares to hide it done that in 2015 and took them off a month ago to paint the flares in bed liner and so far no rust back or dirt thanks to something I seen on Amazon called fender flare gasket seal
Put the flairs back on and drive it. It is a good looking truck for its age. Spend a bunch of money that you’ll never get back to me doesnt make sense ... But hey, its your truck and your money.....
Truck looks great. You should spend a couple hundred bucks to have it paint corrected and it will look amazing. You may not have to repaint it
Hey man just reaching out wondering if you know anything about a 2009 Silverado audio system I need someone local that won’t charge a ton of money to take a look
Oh yeah it looks great but they look way better with the finder flairs even if you color matched them like Braydon price had on his old cat eye looks 100 times better with them either way but I’m sure some rino line or whatever you wanna do with make them look better but for now you could just through them back on or test some stuff with tires your wanting to secretly run for a day or sum 🤔😂
Prefer flares
Menzerna 400 on a lake country orange pad on that whole truck after clay baring about 5 pass and it will have such amazing gloss
I used to clean armored vehicles in the Army with a pressure washer, but NEVER my car or truck.
Needs chrome door handles, way less of a hassle than color match
Agreed
Next mood 8ft whip cb antenna!!!!🤔
Im wondering how is gonna looks😎
I like it better without the flares. Black is just better looking clean and shiny and the flares was taking away from that.
Put the fender flares back, it gives it a bit more class and protection. Needless to say that it also reduces the amount of mud and stones getting flicked up all over the body.
y’all realize how he said basement instead of garage?😂 i was like how he gonna pull the truck in the basement
Color match! I had a 2003, thought it looked to wimpy without the flares...
If it was me I’d put the flares back on, get some lift spindles and swap the Chevy keys for ford keys and leave it
Black out rims, Size large tires, remove chrome door trim, lower. Then goal lift.
The line left behind maybe its because the eraser wheel couldn't get into the groove there? The way the fender bends in that spot looks like eraser couldn't get in?
I wanna do true duals on my 09 silverado. Do you have problems with drone or getting annoyed with the sound on road trips?
The truck looks better without the flares as they are. Once the flares are color matched, it's a toss up in my opinion.
Looks good without the fender flares I don't like fender flares but I think if u get them color matched it will really make the truck look real good
Definitely color match them and put them back on I have green color matching ones on my cateye and love the way they look on my truck.
Hey can i do all the customs you made to that gmc truck to a silverado same year 2006 1500?
Me personally i like the fender flares on these truck's but they have to be color match because i don't like the stock plastic fender flares
Herculiner the fender flares and slap them back on. It'll be darker than original for a better contrast to the truck.👍
Take it to a paint shop to get that line out on the fender that’s what I did with my 2011 f250 when I took the flairs off it and you can’t tell they were ever on it
I gotta pull my flares gunna have to anyway to repair my box but I really hope the front is not rotted when I pull them off.
I like it better without the fender flares personally but maybe if they were color match they would look good so color match them then put them back on
i like it with flares on, gives it a better stance i think. makes it look more bubba you could say, im a sucker for bubba trucks lol
personally, I'd leave them off then get rid of all chrome, and do a blacked out, look C:
Normally i would say take the flares off, but i believe if you get them color matched and throw them back on it will be so clean
You went through the paint because you were using the wheel to fast. It’s made to be used at slow speeds. Looked better without flares
i would definitely get them color matched and put em back on i have a suburban same body style and it came with them color matched from the factory but i had a blow out and it shredded one of the rear ones so i had to take em all off and now i can’t find the one i need so i can put them back on
“How do I get in that little crevasse”
Use your fingers...
🍻
I live in Minnesota an yes never take them off if you bought it used!
U could get it paint corrected it’ll removes swirls and scratches it’ll be cheaper then a new paint job
Ohhhh babyy that looks good 🔥🔥way better IMO
Squat a little now!
I like it without flamers and it look amazing my truck same in the profile picture
I think it would be a good video if you go get your new truck from the factory and video you driving it back home.
You gotta color match brotha ! And add a 1inch spacer to push those wheels out just a bit to make it look mean !
The truck looks so much cleaner and way more crisp without the flares in my opinion
You should do a a video of you doing paint correction and bring the swirls back to brand new paint
I personally think the flares look better I’ve always like flares though
Looks way better with the flares. Would look even better if they were color matched
I like it better with the flares, I don’t know exactly why but I just do
