Anyone paint theirs?
I used plastX @ 6 months ago and they came up good but coming back to the dull plastic fade again.
Not noticeable till close but still be good to get a long term finish on them.

I use PlastX on mine but oxidation dulls them over time.
I don't think painting them would look good. :?

The ones I'm looking at are slightly tinted I believe, probably wouldn't bother painting them...especially after the less than enthusiastic responses about painting them!

I like them. They might not work extremely well as wind deflectors, I think they look good.

Here's my BB4 with OEM deflectors:

I've got the £50 eBay numbers on mine, main reason for buying them was crappy window seals and laziness. Peeled the ugly stickers off and slipped them on, problem solved. I actually quite like the look of them and they're good if you're smoking and it's raining

Since having them oem on my ek9 I've really liked the look of them. Gonna get a set for my prelude whenever I can be bothered to get off my bum and sort it out

I'd post a picture of the OEM ones on my 4th, but they look the same as everyone else's!
