I hate how this looks. I want to make it look Factory because this cracked molding with the chrome (why is is chrome?) sht peeking through.

I thought about chipping it all off but I think chrome molding is too Paisa.

how about painting it black, after chipping the rest of the rubber off of coarse. the dealers still sell this part too.

Was there somewhere out in Japan a designer that said "rubber coating will stick to Aluminum forever!"

I trippin over chrome hahaha! Its just funney to me. I bought the plasticoat flat black now I am just looking at removing them or doing work where they are.

 

GRACIAS !!

I will get to wurk on em in the morning.

 

All done. Used Jasco paint stripper to softem the rubber from the aluminum and a razor blade to remove, after finishing with 600 sand paper I painted flat black. I was going to remove them but I was lazy and just masked off the surroundings.

If you use rock-chip undercoating first, then paint them flat black, you'll get a near OEM looking finish.

That said, I like the smoothness of plain flat better myself. Nice job.

 

Thank you brother!
