Ok well today I finally got the parts I needed painted, which consist of my Esky Rack and Esky vents. Color matched them today from Escalade Black to Tahoe Indigo Blue.

Looks ok. I think you need to get them re- cleared. They don't look as glossy as the body. Overall though, looks good. Nice investment.

I didn't even notice at first, but yeah I think you're right. Still looks good though, bud!

Haha we'll see how it looks tomorrow with more daylight.
I only paid $40 to get everything painted. Am sure he can give it an other coat of clear for free, heck even 2 or 3 if needed.

Overall to get my esky rack for $100 and the real esky vents and not some wanna be copies/replicas for $20 and paint everything for $40 is a killer of a deal.
