Is everyone else's stock skirts that yucky black plastic? Has anyone gotten them professionally painted yet? Tired of seeing how crappy mine looks.

i also think they look crappy (cheap, if you want another word for it).

but personally, i wouldn't paint them. you'd have to order the factory toyota paint if you wanted it to match decently..and that'll set you back a few bucks (it's not really THAT expensive...i just don't think its worth it). if you are very concerned about it..i'd just look into buying a kit. OR you can do the paint, i just don't recommend it.

Having the stock rocker plastic's painted was one of the first things I did, It finished the car off and makes it look a little lower. here's an old pic
