Default Sideskirts

On my 97 Accord(avatar, to ur left; pics in my album), the sideskirts have dramatically faded over time. Im not really into a full bodykit, but i was wondering since im going to re-paint next month, could these stock sideskits be re-painted to their original color or should i try to purchase new ones?

you can buy some "forever black" and dye them back to almost new. New ones are expensive (nearly $200 list). you CAN paint them with plastic paint such as Color Coat from SEM. They must be cleaned very well, scuffed lightly with a scuff pad, then coated.
I used forever black and liked it.

find a local dealer and get some black if you want to paint them.

sorry that was unclear.

find a local SEM dealer from their website and buy some satin black Color Coat if you decide to paint them.
