1. My painting skills aren't perfect and I would notice it every time I looked at them. 2. Plastidip won't hold up well to scrubbing when cleaning 3. The bezels I got look factory and will hold up well over time Another option is to paint your bezels which will hold up well and look good if done right.

The reason I didn't plasti dip is because in 2 years when it fades to gray I don't want to re-do it

Make sure you have a puller tool, or a way to not damage the old ones if you do plasti-dip. I kind-of damaged my old ones... but I had the new ones. No worries.

I just bought the blank ones on Amazon when I did mine too. Surprised at how easy it was.

Did mine this weekend, gunmetal gray from Canadian Tire. Followed with a clear coat, not very glossy but exactly how I wanted them to come out.

Ha, thats my car. Yeah I painted them flat black, then ended up adding a clearcoat.
They have held up fine. My taillights also have a DIY afterburner, which is why the middle of the tail is darker.
