why bother, go to suncoast link below, they have these things and they will paint for you then ship to you. not too expensive.

i bought mine from SunCoast at a great deal and didnt have them painted. they come in the same matte black as the surrounding area and look just fine. If you have them painted a shiny color they are going to stand out again, as they did when they were silver. ill take a pic and post it so you can see what mine look like. I agree with Fredyy...its a DIY'er if you do want them glossy.

Looks great. I think the color on your car determines which looks best- painting them or keeping them color-matched. It looks hot on the red but on my seal grey I prefer to leave them alon ealthough Iam putting mesh screens in behind.

That looks great RedRocket!........I think Johnb21 has something though.......thislooks great on the non-metallic colors, but may be a bit out of place on the metallics......then again I may just have to see it!

I ordered mine painted from Suncoast also. They did an awesome job. The gloss does not stand out too much at all. I was going to put on the clear bra on mine, so even if I had painted mine flat, the clear bra would have made it look glossy. Some folks here had problems with paint chips from road debris. Check out my thread....

how do you remove them?

sleepless: The 'Owners Manual' has a section (with diagram) on removing the foglight assembly in order to replace the bulb. And I believe there have been illustrated threads or an 'Article' on this forum.

Nice, can you put a front pic of the car? Do you prefer the black or red one personally?
