Hey everyone! I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I need some advice.

I've ordered a 4 door Outer Banks in Area 51 (non-Sasquatch). We all know OB comes with the painted fender flares, but I don't think I'm gonna be a fan of them. If I want to switch them out to the gray fender flares like every other trim (that doesn't have Sasquatch), should I just buy them in gray or paint/wrap my existing flares? I think I'd also like to wrap the door handles to the MIC color or whatever color the flares are. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Can't wait to get my Bronco, I'm beyond excited like everyone else. Have a good day!

If you paint/wrap them they won't be the textured plastic like the MIC top. I would just wait and get some aftermarket flares.

The video I saw for SEMA and a BN video I believe shows the fender flairs are easy to pull off. With that, I would assume there will be aftermarket or Ford Accessories you can purchase and swap out. Just like the front fenders and rear quarter panels can be easily removed with a few bolts.

If I were you, I would trade them with someone that likes the painted flares. A51 is going to be a very popular color so I don't think it will be an issue finding someone.
