Running boards

[Fauxnali]

Has anyone tried to paint the stock running boards?
I'm thinking of trying to paint the outside edge to match the truck.

I guess not. That being said I'm wondering if they are the same plastic/rubber as the intake cover the fuse panel cover ETC under the hood. I've seen some of you guys paint that to match the exterior and is there any special prep work involved or do you just clean it and spray it?

Go for it! I surely thought about doing the same.

I don't think it would look very good. Try doing a photoshop of it. You are drawing attention to something that I think is best left black, to hide and blend in.

one guy on here had his Line X'd or Rhino lined a color to match the vehicle, looked good.

Copper did it, if I remember correctly.

That's a good idea Mr B. The look I'm going for is to not draw attention to it but it may help make the vehicle look a little lower, and as far as the Rhino liner idea it may be best as it would see some scuffing and rock damage.

Thanks guys, I'll check out Coppers ride as well.

that's who it was, thank you, Black and Copper right?

Yeah it was Copper and Black, he painted the boards black but rhino lined the place where you put your foot the same copper clour as the other copper parts of the vehicle. It looks sharp, I think if i did it i would leave the place where you put your foot black but paint the rest white to match the vehicle.
