Question Replacing '91 black moldings to painted '93-94 moldings..

Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the lower moldings (black rubber/plastic molding on the bottom of the car) from a '91 LS400 to '93-94 LS400 painted moldings?? I believe it's the '93-94 models that have the painted moldings to match the lower half of the car and maybe it's just me, but I think it makes the car look much cleaner rather than having ugly black ones.

My 90 bottom cladding peices are painted a lighter color of the body color. They are two tone. Yours isn't?

Wow...really? Mine aren't. Hmm...maybe painted moldings were a sport package option or something?

whats up?
He is not talkin about the two tone paint...hes talkin about the black rubber mold on the very bottom of the car...i put black magic on mines and it shines up very nice and looks good also.
I have seen the 92 with painted moldings. I was gonna buy a set at the junk yard but he wanted me to buy the whole front bumber and rear bumper...haha

oh oh oh

I know!

Ok, yes I think these will fit on a 91. The body length didn't change from 91-93 so it should work.

I know, I hate mine...they are that cheap black plastic instead of color matched to the car..
