Before
After
Rear vent caps were initially Escalade pearl white. I sanded them with 1000 and 2000 and rattle painted them black (3 coats) and clear coat (2 coats).
The plastic applique where the 3rd brake light is attached to was burgundy. I painted that in the same way as the vent caps.
The brake light was faded and oxidized. Sanding, polish and wax brought it back to new.
Cost - Escalade rear vent caps = $20; 2002 Escalade rear window and brake light = $200, paint = $30 ... end result with a clean rear look = priceless.
