I'm in my late 30's and recently became not only a first-time Ram owner, but a first-time truck owner period. I love my new (to me) truck (Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Crew; Hemi 5.7; purchased 2 weeks ago) but my stupid ass has already managed to put about a 9 inch deep scratch in the front right fender flare (pictured). Perhaps needless to say, I have been absolutely sick over it since it happened.
My questions:
(1) If I wanted to just restore the truck to its original condition, what would be the best way to go about acquiring a replacement fender flare in the right color?
(2) If I wanted to just scrap the original fender flares and install something aftermarket to improve the looks of my truck, what would you guys recommend? (i.e., what do you think would look the best for the price? and where might you buy?)
Attached are photos of the damage, as well as a profile shot of my truck. Any and all thoughts/suggestions appreciated.
