Do you remove the plastic chrome before paint or do you give a good sanding to scuff them up?

I'll join in. I am proud of my own work. Totally worth the time and $18.00.

If you have a local auto body paint supply store like PPG or whatever, they offer for about $20-$25 to load any rattle can with aerosol and any OEM paint color. Just look at you driver door for the factory paint code ��
