Paint it! Then you don't have to look at the moisture and it will look factory



I have seen the middle piece molded to the rear bumper but I can assure you it looked like ass, just having the piece painted to match the car looks much more factory than if it were molded to the bumper

I had it done by a shop along with my mirrors and a bumper. Some people do it on their own it may match it may not if you just use spray paint.

I got my spray paint from an automotive paint store, they mixed it using my paint code off the car, perfect match. Cost around $20 a can but it's well worth it.

why are you having trouble sealing it? get some clear silicone for windows from home depot and seal everything up. why is everyone making this complicated.

LOL at the diamond plate idea.
