    Whats wrong with your fenders?

    A good rule of thumb is to stick away from holiday colors, but you can't go wrong with flat black plastics. Just go with a different frame color

    And a red 2000 silverado

    Black fenders look good, but they show scratches like crazy! If you plan on trail riding it hard, I would suggest another color for the fenders, otherwise you will constantly have to use Plastic Renew to keep it looking new - very time consuming.
