Just finished painting some trim

Just finished painting the bezel white and the mirrors black. Got the bezel off finally. The first few screws were easy, the 3 bottom clips were holding on for all their might. Wasn't sure they would budge, but with a few good tugs after getting pretty frustrated it came free. (sure hope I can get it back on without scatching the new paint) The longest part was carefully taping off the edges of the mirror. Overall all I am really happy with the result. On to the bumpers and the doorhandles tomorro. For anyone interested I used Krylon fushion for plastic, satin black and glossy white for the bezel. Thanks for all the guidance.

Re: Just finished painting some trim

I'll be doing this mod in two weeks.


Painting the trim...sounds like a euphemism. I hear it works well with a large brush.
