Default Feeler: FS Windshield Trim surround PAINTED graphite metallic

Hi all,

I recently purchased a new set of windshield trim pieces and had them professionally painted graphite metallic to match my xfire. The result looks awesome, but there's just one problem. The rubber molding on the drivers side piece (the part that rests against the windshield) has these little nicks in it. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but sadly I am very OCD and it bothers me immensely. With that said, any sane person would say that they are small enough to not be noticeable unless you looked really close and someone pointed it out to you.

I'm looking to recoup my cost by selling these to a forum member and get a brand new set painted (which will not be cheap for me but c'est la vie). As others have pointed out, the trim alone is ultra expensive from the dealer (~$1000 for set) or even from a 3rd party parts dealer (upwards of $400-$500 for the set). The pieces were painted to match and are properly clearcoated.

In order to break even on parts and painting costs, I need to sell them for $300 plus actual shipping cost to you. Since I realize this is optimistic, I'll accept offers.

I can provide pictures upon request. And then there will be cake.

Thanks.
