Numerous sets on EBay. I got the painted ones. Like their design the best and also their glossy look. About $70. Getting them installed next week. My mechanic is on “heat wave” hiatus…

Installed this morning. Very pleased. No drilling, no problems. Beautiful glossy shine. Installation done by my longtime I independent mechanic in less than a half hour as a favor. I can recommend them and the eBay merchant. Under $70.

Are they painted? Sometimes the rocks can start chipping away the paint and the paint flake will spread to the other side.

Better they should chip than my car, I guess!

They still look good and are compatible with the Atomic Silver paint. GOOD LUCK getting yours installed.

I honestly believe that the matte black is more flattering based on my mind's eye imagining them glossy. I think they meld in beautifully, and that glossy might be, based on what I'm imagining, more contrasting, which is not necessarily bad either.

Actually, I just looked at all the photos and the glossy ones look good too! With some tire shine, they could pop even more.
