Painted my side door compartment covers!

Over the weekend I deceided to paint my door lid covers artic silver to match the rest of the silver trim and just to make it look cool. They came out really nice. Saved myself some big bucks as usual. Wasn't easy to get the rubber like surface sanded off. But after I put them in my dishwasher and set it on a small load with high temp drying, the rubber like surface peeled right off and it was much easier to sand. One of the many tricks I've learned over the years. Same way I did my color matching bumperret covers. This will remove any amor-all or car polishes you may have used that could have soaked into the material. Anyway, here is what it looks like. Cost me about $12.00 in spray paint, that's all.
