doesn't flow or even match up to factory lines.

if you want it black... paint it using duplicolour... and you'll have a better looking product.

How does paint duplicator work? And do you have to do anything special to apply it?

this is completely off topic, but jw since canada has diff ways of spelling such words do the cans say "duplicolour" or "duplicolor" up there?

It doesn't look that bad man! But if your trying to update your truck, put a little more time and drop a tad bit more money into things man! Hopefully you wiped the areas down with an alcohol pad or something before you installed the pieces or the sun will probably bake that right off. I would definitely start getting a little input before I buy stuff, later!

C'mon, tell us what you really think!

OP - I agree with Grafix that it doesn't look the greatest, mostly because the fit isn't the greatest. For $30, if you like it, great job! I paid a little more for mine and you can tell just how much better it flows. Just my .02

That's been my project for a while now, changing the interior color from beige to black with some accents. Duplicolor paints are easy to use but you must prep right. Make sure you have a clean surface before you spray.
