If you got that good of a deal I would flip them, make a couple extra bucks and buy the coated ones that'll last longer.

If it isn't driven in snow (salt), there is no reason to believe they can't last you a good 5 years or better. At a hundred bucks, install them and enjoy. They'll last a hand full of years.

Robbie bad move to sand them and paint yourself...haah. You can't ever paint better than the factory did. And honestly, I told you this tons of times....they'll maybe make it a year before they look like complete crap.
