Wow. You nailed it I agree.

I think it looks great. I may have left the fron and rear bumpers alone to add some contrast but the clormatched flares looks so much cleaner.

So it looks like this?

Did you also paint that spot on the front bumper in the middle at the bottom? It looks like its part of the skid plate, but it's really the lower middle of the bumper.

If you did, can you post a pic of how it looks in AG against the skid plate?

THX !!!

Yeah I painted the skid plate lower portion but the super lower power that you can just unbolt I actually had them spray bedliner on it. I'll take a pic tomorrow so you can see

Thanks Crash... what i had in my head doesn't look good at least on this base model. Maybe I need to rethink it.

I still like the colomatched fenders. But the photo you attached is

Can't wait !!

Been heavily thinking about doing this to mine (when it finally shows up) since the Gen 2 was announced a few years ago.

I think the PTM parts give the badass Raptor look a touch of class! It still retains that drive anywhere look, but now looks classier.

The flares on a stock raptor make it look like a cheap POS..

I agree with @Gilligan f150 with flares look more like a Raptor than a true raptor looks like a regular f150 when the flares are painted. Mine are also painted though so I might be a little biased

To the OP, as someone who has repainted the rear flares twice now. Have somebody wrap the flares in clear bra or expel. The rear flares get pretty beat up. The BFG's love to throw rocks.
