They are slightly textured, so did you paint over the texture or did you make them smooth first,(i.e. sanding them smooth or applying a filler then sanding smooth)

Thanks in advance !!

I didn't sand mine and they look fine, you have to get up close to see the texture and it doesn't bother me. The ones that now come painted on P cars are smooth so the choice is yours. You can sand them down as suggested. I had a pro paint mine and the color match is good.
