Looks great! I was leaning towards getting them color matched, but can't find any for the 2500 in my color. Did you have your local shop paint those?Bushwackers! View attachment 54287

OEM flares from a Laramie or Limited provide hardly any protection and to properly install them require you to drill holes in the sides of your fenders. They are more for looks.I think you have about 4 options.
- regular OEM flares off a laramie, limited, etc.
- OEM Power Wagon flares
-OEM Offroad flares as pictured above (blue flares)
- Bushwacker flares
I'd bump that # a bit, as Bushwacker makes five different styles for our trucks, plus Rough Country two, Husky two, EGR two, Lund, FabFours, Spec-D, AEV, Air Design.I think you have about 4 options.

Interesting, I thought they used Bushwackers.I wish SCA, who makes the Black Widow package, would sell their flares separately but they won’t. Those provide max coverage and make all other flares look small.View attachment 54303
Bushwhacker might make them, but they have their own design that includes a small flare at the back of each one similar to the little flare on the Laramie front fender.Interesting, I thought they used Bushwackers.
Unless this is all just trickery, it really looks like they mold their own.Bushwhacker might make them, but they have their own design that includes a small flare at the back of each one similar to the little flare on the Laramie front fender.
THIS is exactly what I'm afraid of! LOL...This sounds just like ME! lol (This is my third RAM truck in three years.)I do prefer the look of the Black Widow flares, they for sure are their own design. Another thing to consider is how far your tires poke out past your fenders. I had 35/12.50 with 0 offset on the orange truck in my picture that stuck out about 1" and looked proportionate. After putting the Bushwackers on the tires looked small and too tucked in, drove me crazy so I traded it in for the truck I'm spending way too much money to customize. Here I go again LOL.
