I love my silver-painted strakes. I think they coordinate well with my silver wheels and dashboard alum-look silver dash vent slats. It is relatively easy to do, although you do need to mask the very bottom of the driver's side strakes in order for the bottom strake to look like a bar...if you look carefully at yours you will see that below the bottom strake Porsche filled-in the space, probably to prevent water intrusion. I used Rustoleum 7271 silver paint and some clear-coat, and deliberately did not sand the strakes smooth, because the crinkly surface makes the silver paint "pop."
