When you install a ceramic coating, do you also install it on the fender flares? How do they look afterwards?BBBEF17C-2265-4E01-AA56-B5B2F87A01BC.jpeg

I did my ceramic myself, I coated everything including decals, fender flares, paint, and headlights. I also coated my Method wheels. 4 Months into it and no issues. I would make sure you read the directions on the bottle of the product that you use, I believe some ceramics you need to be careful with. The one I used said it could go on everything except vinyl and rubber. As far as the fender flares I don't notice any visual difference as they still look fairly matte finish compared to the paint. Everything slides right off when she is dirty, has made cleaning really easy. Glad I did it.

Did it myself, mine looked the same, no issues. Maybe a tad bit better since i did some polishing before hand.

Good point, I don't know. Luckily no issues with doing it. I kept it off all the vinyl and rubber around the bed and windows, never thought about the decals.
