Default Has Anyone Painted Their Factory Step Bars?

I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I think the factory colormatched nerf bars make my truck look much shorter than it really is. I'm thinking about painting them black to make them stand out a little less. Has anyone painted theirs? Bedliner? Possibly undercoat? Ideas and input is welcome

I did base coat clear coat on mine to match my silver two tone. I had bed liner first but the plastic pad peels it up over time. Never had a problem once painted Has Anyone Painted Their Factory Step Bars?-image-2661342794.jpg
