The paint code is PXR...it just looks 'satin-like' cause the clear coat has been wet sanded.
OR
Are you talking about the cowl stripes? If so they're flat black.
Yes the window was inspired by the new ZR1.
Thank you sir.
They were painted PXR to match my paint.
* sanded down
* etching primer
* base coat
* clear coat
I had them painted when I first bought them at the of '03 (new)...but they were painted regular black to match my old paint code.

Nope, it's all about prepping them right...etching primer is a must...

And of course, don't let morons take off/put on your wheels when you get new tires/fix a flat/balance & rotate (if appl) and such.

In your case you could just sand them with 800 (400 on deeper scratches), spray adhesion promoter, and then your paint - base/clear or rattle can.
You could sand between base and clear to get a smoother looking finish.
