DG painted tail bezels
Installed the painted tail bezels from DG (via Stage3). This pic is with the lights on...
Comments on the product. I added tape to the middle vertical pieces as suggested by others. They pieces fit good, but don't cover all the red from the lens (there's a lip)... which I didn't think about. The red from the lip reflects off the bumper fascia. I painted this after the fact and took care of it... a task that would've been waaaay easier to do beforehand.
The color match looks good... but I'm not impressed with the paint job. One side has several pieces of 'stuff' in the paint, the other side has significant runs (not on the face). Won't be able to see it unless you're looking, but I think I could've done better with a rattle can... and it's not something that whoever painted it would've missed.
It looks much better than stock to me, and it'll do for now.
