COLOR KEYES BODY MOLDINGS

ROCK,
I think a good quality spray paint would work on plastic molding. I've experimented by spray-painting my airdam black and so far the paint has held up excellent. Looks much better than plastic. I've noticed on sport models the same plastic taillight bezels are used as on standard trucks, except that they've been painted.
The other day I got 2 cans of bumper paint (meant for rubber and plastic). I'm going to try this on the inner fender liners and see how it does. If the results are good, I'll paint all the exterior molding, mirrors, etc. for a glossier, blacker look. The plastic is already starting to dull because of all the heat and sun here in the desert.

Aftermarket doesn't get into factory(or even close) mouldings. For durability,nothing works better than a spray gun. Bodyshops can do this for you,and it should be relatively inexpensive since it's just white.

Use my approach, which will really fix door whacker, limbs, etc etc. . have bedliner sprayed 1/2 way up the side of your truck then have them paint it at a body shop. Hehehe. That'll fix the problem, unless of course $$ is an issue-cause it ain't cheap (BUT IT DOES WORK!)

Think I will pass on the outside bed liner,maybe should just spray the door wackers. Painted factory moldings will be the way I go.

Make sure your paint has a flex agent. I sprayed my tailights to match the body paint and it has held up well. Just another 2 cents.
