looks nice...is it hard to remove, or did you guys do a lot of masking and paint it on the car?

I like the look of the painted wiper cowls. Are you guys painting these at home or having a shop paint them? How much are we talking about to get it painted?
Keep the pics coming. Anyone have an Electron Blue painted cowl?

I did my own. It's pretty simple. Just clean it up, scuff it, then paint it. I didn't try to get a car like smooth finish on mine.

Thanks a bunch folks...I appreciate all the responses and PICS!!! 95% sure I'm going to have the body shop paint it now after seeing these. I was just concerned about it looking cheesy but the pics I see look pretty damn good.
The only thing that concerns me are the wiper arms...I'm still undecided on painting them, I kinda like them painted and I kinda don't from what I've seen.
