here you go... How do I go about painting the plastic parts on the outside of my truck... I have seen a few Chevy's with matching flare and handles and they look really good... Thanks for all the help...

maybe mdrag will leave, had this done once and he had to go and move it to here (typical Okie)

The paint is called SEM found at most paint stores and can be color matched, easy to use and stands up to oklahoma bugs and powerful car washes. Painted the black part of my grill last may and so far so good, not even a rock chip.

good luck Geno

thanks for the input Gene... I will be heading over to the paint store tomorrow to check it out... I did find door handles, painted and all, for 31 a piece... so now all I have to do is paint the flares

Door handles are from Rydell Chevrolet in Northridge, CA... I am going over there tonight or tomorrow and once I pick them up I will report the total cost... the other dealer I went to, Community Chevrolet in Burbank, CA told me $45... regularly $55... I will report sometime before the weekend... And if they are for real I can purchase them for people...
