QUESTION ABOUT FG FALCON UTES (base model)

Hey, Out of interest has anyone ever painted the side bumper molds and skirts on an FG Falcon Ute? Theres one thing I don't like about the base FG ute, and that's these unpainted pieces. I don't mind the R6, but is it a fesible thing to paint these, and if so, do you believe it would improve their look? (plus of course if you lowered it and put some rims on it)

If I was to find a reasonably price on of these utes, can anyone give a rough estimate of costings to do this?

Cheers
Drew

P.s. Has anyone ever had any creative ideas how to hide the joint between the cab and the tub? ....One small thing some people loath about falcon utes. Not that it drastically worries myself though.

not exactly what i'd call good photo-shopping, but there was no harm in having a try!
-Dark agents, lowered, painted plastic molds, attempted joint cover up .

JUst took out that gap thingy..once again not a proffesional job!

bump?
