they are done very well and integrated into the car. They were designed when the car was designed. Look great without paint. I paint everything, but these can stay black...

install how to here:

I have them installed too. Look great - fit great. Id be concerned on painting these on the inside as that would be like painting your wheel wells.

I got mine from GM Parts House a forum dealer. They arrived four days after I ordered them. I installed them with car on the cement floor of my garage. No jacking up. Super smooth installation. Didn't have to take off the wheels or turn the front wheels.

Had the same GM units on my 05 for about 7 years (40K miles). No chips or dings on the rockers or the bobtail. First thing I added to my C7. Lot of crappy dirt roads here on sunny FL. Blend right in on my T/R body.
