Lil, B, you need to have them mix flex into the paint as the bumperettes can move. I did not have mine sanded so you can see the texture under the silver/clear coat but it does not bother me. You can spend the time and sand them smooth or have the shop do it for you. A nice upgrade mod for little money and the newer cars come with them painted. I have a set of '03 side vent covers to paint as soon as the weather gets warm and I believe that will finish my mods (at least for the time being).
