Default fender flares

I have a question I have these fender flares that I took off my 4 door sidekick. I am considering selling them to this guy on this site but I was wondering if anyone could let me know what a fair price for a set of flares like this are worth. I was told buy the dude that I bought my zuki from that they we added on at the factory. There are in great condition they are just dirty and have wax on them in the picture. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Salvage Yard Price Secret: Make cheap look expensive.

Clean them real good with scrub brush, soap an warm water (so hands don't go numb). Give them a good looking over & smooth out any rough spots with light sanding. Then give them a nice layer of flat black spray paint($.99 can works best) let sit over to get rid of spray paint smell an there you go, just made a set of $10 fender flares look like worth $40.

The ones you have, would go for $10 - $20 as is an $30 - $50 with a little work.

They look like the rubber arch extensions, just give them a wipe over with WD40.

If there rubber then just clean them up. Plastic & Metal ones need the extra attention to look pretty.

If there just covered with dirt scrub brush or wash cloth an water will do fine, if they got oil or grease on them use dish soap.
