also whatever you call the black piece that holds the wiper blades and have the vents in it, hood to cowl seal maybe? But anyhow has anyone took these things off and painted them gloss black or got them color matched? what was the process of prepping the pieces for paint? How hard was it to remove all these things and what did it cost you? Thanks. also add the rough pieces of the running boards and roof rack to the list.

 

Sooooo.... any opinions on sanding down roof rails, door handles, section between hood/windshield, textured part of running boards, (im sure im missing something else though) and painting them an nice gloss black, or possibly an semi gloss black? Thanks!

 

dont do the running boards, this will make them slick (by comparison to what they are now) and if someone steps on them they WILL slip and most likely get hurt (my dumbass uncle did this)

 

No one ever use's them, but still I wonder if it would look occure how most running boards are like what the durango's are stock.

 

Does this run in the family?

 

no, he married my moms sister, so not really related, this is also the same idiot that put armor all tire cleaner on the running boards before doing this (same result in case you are wondering)

 

I actually use Turtle Waxes Ice wax on these parts of my Durango. It makes them look new. Ice doesn't have that feel like Armor All. I also use it on the dash and door interiors as well. Works great and lasts a while as well.

 

I also do the same with the ice, doesnt last an LONG time but it looks nice for the time it stays!

 

Ok,

So what is the best stuff out there?.......I use Meguiars.

 

You could paint them and use grip tape on it
