I have 1998 Jeep Wrangler with black fender flares that look gray. Has anyone done a DIY paint job on these, and what black was used (gloss or flat?)
So what? Now there are eleven. This is a forum and not a textbook.Don’t tell me we’re doing this again. @Stull 1968, there must be 10 threads exhausting this topic.

You're welcome here, some people can just get a little burnt out. Everybody asks similar questions, yours is nothing new and there are people here to help. Some people would rather you just stay in the shadows and lurk but I enjoy new people saying hello even if it's a question that is pretty common. Post a picture of your Jeep if you want.Well, I am a first time user and Jeep owner so at least give me one screw-up.
I’d stoop, but I don’t bend over. You could be helpful. You know more than I do about most of this stuff. Send the guy a thread he can read and get all the opinions. You already said Hi. Oh, and there is a Welcome area for that.You're welcome here, @JMT is just a little burnt out. Everybody asks similar questions, yours is nothing new and there are people here to help.

Your jeep is one of my favorite colors. I used duplicolor bed armor on mine. Some like it, some don’t. It has a texture but is not as aggressive as say rhino liner or the like. Whatever you choose, prep is the key.I have 1998 Jeep Wrangler with black fender flares that look gray. Has anyone done a DIY paint job on these, and what black was used (gloss or flat?)
Why the fuck even paint them? Flood Penetrol twice a year and a Can of it will last a lifetime!
Not recommended by me for hardtops though as it can run down black duco but bumper plastic side steps and anything faded ABS and rubber brings them back like new.

There aren't many things I dislike about your Jeep but that shit you sprayed on the flares and other bits should be grounds for revoking Jeep ownership.Your jeep is one of my favorite colors.

It is the goober version of the heat gun bullshit.Lemme get this straight... You just wipe them down with Penetrol and that brings back the black?
