OEM splash guards

Are they textured or do they have a smooth finish? Checking to see how difficult they would be to paint. Thanks.

It's your normal automotive plastic texture. I'm painting mine. They would stick out and look really out of place not painted I think.

They're smooth.

I think mudflaps look extremely goofy when they're painted (on any car, not just an 86), but whatever, do what you want to do. I like my unpainted flaps; when I wash my car, I throw a bit of tire shine on them and they look brand new again.
