I did the same to mine, only I used a paint called cast grey, polished the lettering and satin cleared the whole shebang! I did them last August and they still look good after all summer of driving.

That's good to know I was wondering how well they will hold up ! I didn't take them apart I sprayed the on the car you really only see the front anyway! And I think they turnout good! And yours look good yet too!
