lol, all i did was sand with 600 then 1000 then 1500 and primer and paint with some gloss black.oh and clear coat or else it will peel in extreme weather conditions(hence why i had to redo them) looks pretty good and costs a hell of a lot less than new ones would. im sure i could have wetsanded and tryed to get a mirror finish by wetsanding but im to lazy.

Congrats on the GR2 and H&R. Good luck with the install. Do show us more of the pillars though. I'm sure most of us are hurting for a fix!
