The Baron
I like drugs
The guy I talked to said they would use some kind of rust stop paint on it so hopefully it holds up for a long time. I don't really like the way fender flares look but if rust does show up in a few years I probably won't want to pay to have it fixed again so I would throw on the flares then.
While I normally like flares I really like the look of your truck with the chrome strips. It would be a shame to remove the chrome strips, and normally I'm all for debadging these trucks.
