I had the factory side skirts and rear bumper valance painted. You can see pics of it in my photo gallery. Turned out very good, and makes the LSE bumper blend in better.

The paint is holding up great. They prepped it really good and used a plastic promoter on it. It's also warrantied for a year, but the body shop guy told me as long as I own it he'll fix it. It pays to have contacts sometimes. Also I took it easy on the paint to let it fully cure. I've washed it multiple times now and no problems.

I had mine painted by a body shop when I first bought my car before I went to the full LSE kit.

Held up excellent!

that's great guys. i've considered doing it but on a black car the change might not be big enough to justify the cost for me.

Just hit it with some trim shine whenever you wash it and it'll look good.
