The cowl panel is pretty cheap at $47 bucks which I think it totally worth it and is nice visual improvement. But the B-Pillar trim is only the back half of the arm of the folding top frame and those run anywhere from $550-$800 for each side. I can't rationalize that cost so I'm considering painting them. Plus I think it'll be a ******************** to install new ones. Has anyone ever painted theirs themselves and if so what type of paint would you recommend using that not just going to peal off in six months?

Thanks

Tim

Consider dye instead of paint. Won't flake or peel.
