What do I need to do?

I have a black sport. I will keep the chrome insert. Are you guys buying new surrounds that can be painted? Your not painting the chrome surround are you?

quad cabs don't, crew cabs do.

Personally I think its just more black plastic to worry about fading, I'd kinda like to remove it but I don't know what it looks like underneath, holes etc.
So for now, monthly applications of 303 should keep my black bits black.

I'm surprised that the part comes painted from the factory! That's from U.S. dealers too?

Would a hood come painted from the factory? I ask this because I have a flaw in my hood but have been catuioned about having it repainted.
