Mine are now painted

Here's the before shot:

This picture was take with flash, so the bumperettes look darker and shinier than they did in person. One of the reasons I decided to paint them was that they looked oxidized.

Here's the after:

I think the back of the car looks cleaner with the painted bumperettes.

If anyone in the Richmond area needs some Arctic Silver paint, let me know.
