Default paint stock fenders

Has anyone painted or coated their stock fenders? I bought the jeep used and it looks like the buffer rubbed the fender. Now its got a white spot on a black fender.

Take it offroad. The trees will rip them off and then you won't even notice.

Or, stop by autozone and buy back to black.

You can use a heat gun to bring back the black color on faded fenders or use Maguires back to black like stated above. I use it and love it

I tried outlast and works awesome. They boast it protects for 100 washes. So it will last me 100 years.

I use Rustoleum spray on bedliner. The finish and texture are nearly identical to stock.

Troy, did you paint the top too? I'm thinking of doing that myself.

The roof came factory painted. I removed the fenders and had a friend who owns a body shop color match them. It took 3 coats but looks tight. If you get real close you can still see some texture but not noticeable if your not looking. It's worth the little extra $ to have it done right. Cost me $100
