I have seen a couple of posts that make reference to painting the plastic side moldings with rattle can Krylon Fusion paint. I have an '03 Expy with the faded side moldings. Ford would have replaced them but I was out of the country for two years and when I returned, the local dealer claims time had run out.
I have taken the vehicle to two body shops and both refused to paint the side moldings; they are telling me that the paint will not bond to the plastic and will peel off in time. I also spoke to one of those shops that sprays on truck bed liners and he said that material will definitley stick but it has a texture that I don't like.
A kit to replace all the side moldings will run about $800 from the dealer. So, has anybody painted or had their side moldings painted?
