Painting the Fender Trim?
Any of you guys paint the fender trim to color-match the car? I am thinking about painting them, What do you guys think? Something like this below..

I think that in the picture above, they were replaced as part of the rest of the diffuser customization bellow the front and back bumbers along with the ones under the doors on the side.
Painting the standard ones that are rough might not give a smooth effect like these.

Hello guys,
I am new here and I finally got my white 350 F Sport fixed up, together with a bunch of modifications. I actually painted my fenders to match the color, and here's how it looks!
Personally I love it way more than the original setup, it gives the RX a more premium look.

Had my car parked in the garage, took it out today to take the side picture
As for the painting details - I had a paint shop paint the whole front for me, including the fender trims, they just said they would do it, so I didn't really ask for further details.

Thank you guys
I completely agree with your opinion. To each their own! I didn't know how it would turn out leaving the grille and the front lip in their original gray color, also keeping in mind that the lip connects to the fender trim too, but I always liked white/black better than gray. Plus, there were some issues reported with the original paint coming off after some time, so I just said screw it and went all white/black. Chrome just had to go lol. It turned out better than I expected it to and now my RX looks like one of a kind
