Worked on the Side Vents

I dove in this mornin and decided to change up my side vent colors, I was tired of the nasty red inserts. After I painted mine my buddy Sak decided to do his the same. The inserts are different colors but the old chrome parts are the same. This cost a wopping $20.

Looks good....I did mine as well. I did the flat at first, then had that taken off and went with gloss...both look great IMO....as for taking them off, pretty easy I thought...a towel, and a flat screwdriver...and some patience so you dont scratch the paint.

Are they held in with Clips? Just bought a 2009 F-250 and I hate the red, but like the Chrome may just paint the red black

I think they could knock off a couple hundred bucks. WAY OVER PRICED IF YOU ASK ME. But all of their stuff is overpriced anyway.

How did you prep the vent before you painted it. Did you have to take off the chrome finish?
