why don't you post in the FOR SALE/WANTED SECTION.

or you could LOOK through there first AND THEN post what you want.

Yeah, i was just gonnna say save the money and paint'm yourself... might be a bit of work getting them off and on and what not, but why not? It'd be a LOT cheaper than buying new ones

Black is the hardest part to get, aside from the dash and center console. And painting sucks after a few months 95% of the time. Just try being happy with what you have.

I still say paint it... simply research the whole process, from cleaing the dash to getting the right paint... to any follow up work you could do on it. I aslo painted my center console black and it seems to be fine as well... and that has daily usage, granted the sun isn't always beating right down on it, but just from opening it, my arm being on it, etc, i would've assumed that it would start fading or flaking or something... but no...
