picked up set of four of these from a junkyard today. im gonna strip the paint and try and refinish them just wanted to see how the style would look on my car.
trying to figure out if i want to paint them body color or black where the green is.

Paint them the way they're supposed to be... Black. Semi gloss black. Keep the body color on the body.

And since they have heavy rust in the grooves buy a set of stainless or chrome trim rings to set them off.

What's with the Regal emblem near the windows? To each their own but if you want to put an emblem there get tri-shield. Would look better.

Nice to see the trim back on the car. She's coming along!

Black. without the wood you have acres of blue already..... You scored those rims for sure, they are hard to find in 5x5.
