painted flares look a million times better. I don't like the factory flares in black, but these look great!

Is it just the perspective of the photo, or is the leveling kit causing the vehicle to rake toward the rear instead of no rake

It's a Carolina Squat Braptor! J/k

My guess is the springs/shocks haven't settled yet. It was probably level within an hour.

Way better painted. I,don’t like them black myself

According to the owner it's just the photo perspective. It's equal height front and back after the level kit.

Well done. Flares look so much better. They don't look like an after thought now.

I still don't like them, but the Raptor flares look better painted.

I'd love to know what happened behind the scenes for them to greenlight the Raptor looking the way it did, owners shouldn't have to get half the truck repainted for it to look good, it's one of Ford's most premium and expensive offerings. Maybe the pandemic and the headquarters shut-down sapped away a lot of development time and the high-ups wouldn't let them delay the release because they were desperate for a bigger profit margin on the Bronco, but when there are better looking widebody fenders on the aftermarket made with a fraction of Ford's resources, it feels like there's no good excuse.

TBH, I'm ok with the factory rakes for the Sasquatch and BRaptor models. The rear fender openings are smaller and can look squatted with a level kit on some rigs. Just my opinion though. Love the painted fenders!

Maybe I should google this but what exactly goes into painting the flares? I have yet to see the flares up close. I have no idea what the material is or what it even has for texture. Asking because that was a deciding factor on the outer banks my wife wanted and come to find out when you have the SAS package you get the black flares. (We were under the impression the 2023 outer banks SAS was painted per the bronco build site- I even have a screen shot of it)

This Raptor looks incredible imo

Put it on some 40’s and show us that. I’m sure they’d fit cleanly.

OBX + Sasquatch has always lost the painted flares. Ford's build & price has been known to have errors. Any quality paint shop will be able to prep and paint the flares. It'll be the same process as painting the MIC top which people have also done
