Alternative Side Molding Paint Option
Not try to Jack this thread or anything, However after talking with York62 Via PM, I decided I would post what I did.

After Reading the DIY on Page 1 I wanted to do the same, Only with Black. I tried taking off the Side Molding at my local junkyard and couldn't do so with out Destroying it. I Pmed York62 and asked him how he did his. After hearing his Response I decided Painting it on the Car would be a Much better option.

Materials :
Image
Duplicolor "Truck, Van and SUV Trim Paint" - Black
Duplicolor Clear Coat (Not Used, Already Bought for a Previous Project)
Newspaper (x Alot)
Masking Tape

I first Washed the Side Molding to get all the dirt and muk off of it. I Then used Masking tape all around the Trim Paint, then Followed by Taping Newspaper on to be a Mask.
Image
Following This I did Multiple Light Coats to get it all Black. I was planning on putting a Layer or 2 of Clear Coat, However I decided Against it when I saw the Final Product.

Before :

After :

Pictures are on Different Sides, however you can see the Change that happened.

Difficulty :
1 out of 10.

It was Super Easy to do, Hardest part was taking off all the Masking tape.
