    I purchased the set from another member on here so I’m not exactly sure what he used but it’s a smoke tinted film of some sort, I can try to reach out to him and see what he wrapped them with. I agree it looks way better than the shiny red OEM. I also upgraded them with the plug and play Hot Tails kit from @memario1214 they replace the factory halogen bulbs with VLED’s. It also gives your turn signal an amber bulb that illuminates the same location as the reverse light, instead of the whole red portion of your brake light flashing for the turn signal.

    I did the same to mine - don't remember from whom, but the idea came off this forum. I used this:
    Amazon.com: VViViD Extra-Wide Headlight Taillight Vinyl Tint Wrap Roll (Light Smoke 16" x 48" 2-Roll Pack) : VViViD: Automotive
    and an Xacto knife. Did the clear portion of the 3rd-brake light, too.

    The 2 on each side of the steering wheel, above brake controller and the other side, the piece above the glove box. Mine are woodgrain and I ordered black.

    Correct - we pay for the higher trim vehicles and then we replace the higher trim with the base black! Love it. (Although fewer replacements for the platinum than the 1794.

    True. I'm not a woodgrain kinda guy. The silver pieces in my opinion, is just not good. I did the oem blackout dash in my 17 sr5.

    Most all these pieces are overlays but they cover well and I heated the underside 3M strips before attaching.I also wiped down the OEM pieces with denatured alcohol to remove any interior surface protectant for optimum adhesion.17571702960793198672526723559848.jpg

    Looking for some help. I've used the search and it takes me to threads that talk about mirror caps but no part #s. Can they be ordered already painted or do I need to get them painted? Also pointed in the right direction for a #. Thanks
