Hi Lord Mandrake,

Mine where wrapped in vinyl when i bought the car, but it came off and u could see the silver underneath.
I took them off, then spend about 10 hours to remove the vinyl.
My painter charged me €100 to paint them black, matching the car.
At first i wanted to buy new one's so it saved me some work, body shop was asking €300 a part, so thats €900 total.
I may have some photo's for you, about where the clips are on the trip, always start with the top one.
