im not terribly offended by the painted mouldings, it just makes me look at the car a little funny.  My trim was in terrible shape, and i went to Wal*Mart and bought DupliColor BUmper Paint.  The stuff is amazing, my trim looks like it just came off the showroom floor.  It was so nice that i went ahead and painted my white trunk lip spoiler black as well.....

Wal Mart is good for paint and oil, and thats about it IMO.
