Those suckers always fade... and will always in time. I think powder coating them is your best bet... I know a guy who could do it... I might give it a try. Not too expensive.

:werd: Use flat black/black primer if you don't want to worry about imperfections showing up. It still looks good.

If you know some one with excess to a sand blaster just get them to sand blast them it give it a nice finish you might like that

just remember to take the wiper arms off first

to take them off and put it on you just take off that little lug nut off and to put it on just put it on? I was wondering if I would have to line any thing up?
