Default Can you paint BSM on a 1990

Would like to paint my BSM's to match body color. Anyone done this?

YES - 88MY 35th Anniversary car is an example

To color them preparation and materials are critical to accomplish the job. Ideally you would want to remove them and that can be very difficult with out damaging them. I'd say it's not a DIY project.

The "black" BSM are a significant "signature" for the 90MY cars. I would never consider it. If you'd like to accent your '90MY car add some "black" A-molds!

Agreed the black BSMs are a signature of the 90 ZR-1. The newer MYs look like a ford probe without it. And the wheels of the 90 are functional, moving air past the brakes and also better looking than the newer "wagon wheel" look.
