I think more members have pc'd their wheels as opposed to painting them. There are several who have plasti dipped their stockies as well. Search those terms and look under images, should find some good pics to view.

^ i think he said that 1st pic is regular gloss black spray and 2nd pic is PD... btw with the new PD line you can paint anything with regular PD and follow it up with their gloss or metallic spray and get a glossy paint look!

yeah they are weathertech, i cant remember how much they were...like 200 maybe? but i got them off the weathertech site, they are perfect fitment, and IMO they look 100x better than OEM ones cause they go inside the window slot...
the only thing that sucks is they dont (or didnt when i purchased these) have the smoked version...so i covered them with nightshade lol...from the outside it looks good and you cant tell but from the inside it looks like a grey/green compared to my window tint lol
