They'll fit in the rear trunk, but they'll pretty well fill it full so you can't carry anything else like luggage.

They have a rubber strip installed along the edge where it sits on the car. I've never had problem with them scuffing or marring the paint.

Trying to find Ocean Jade Metallic (as you know) will be impossible. Try finding a used set off eBay and get them painted, or alternatively, get a new set of the aftermarket ones off eBay. I bought a (used but new) aftermarket set from Maytag a few weeks ago when he was parting his S car. They're made from molded plastic of some type instead of fiberglass, but the fit is the same, as is the quality. I'm going to have my paint/body guy shoot them for my Ocean Jade Metallic '99 along with a hard top I have ratholed away.
Mine are factory and there is a little marking of the paint from them.
