Flares - Match body color or trim?

[Mike B.]

I have an Alpineweiss II 318is and will be installing IE flares so I can get some wide rubber to handle my euro S50 swap.

Opinions... Should I paint them body color, or match the black trim with some SEM trim paint?

body color with no exposed rivets!!!

black trim, make it look mean!! Here's the issue I think. If you have flexible flares, is it really worth color matching your car? Wont the paint crack too easily?

There's paint for that.

I say body color. If the paint doesn't stick for whatever reason, get metal flares.

I'd vote black.
