Are your stock ones faded and you just need to make them look new again?

You can tape them off or just remove them and paint them. I used some generic paint from the local auto store that's called "black bumper paint". After some simple sanding and cleaning the parts off with alchohol my DIY painting came out damn good!

There is a thread that started sometime in the last week regarding DIY molding restoring. Somebody suggested putting a layer of peanut butter on the molding for a few hours. It sounds silly, but it makes sense. The peanut oil soaks into the molding and restores it's shine. Cheap and easy fix.

The PB does work, just dont drive over or by dusty roads for a few days.... more like a week or two or atleast untill you wash it. I did the PB thing and just drove by a contruction site and my moldings were, well dusted. lol

you can buy the clips, but the pcs that hold the clips are sold with the molding. What I did was went to a pull a part and ****** molding off of alot of cars for the clips and the clip holders.

Smooth or chunky? Hmm, so just slab it on there, let it sit for a while (day or so I guess) then wipe/wash it off? I'll try that and it'll be a lot cheaper than new OEM stuff. I used to think it was stupid for my ex-gf to armorall her trim etc, but it kinda makes sense to.
