Okay heres a question that i dont think has been asked. Iv done some searching, and Iv looked on some sites like ebay for some examples and came up with nothing...

Im looking for some plastic trim pieces to go with my plastic molding on my XLS. To give you an idea, think chevy avalanche. Heres a photo of the ZAPv truck on this site, he originally painted up to where you can put the chrome molding, thats where i would want the plastic to go up to.. I think it would look good and compliment my factory molding very well... Heres a pic of his ride to give you an example...

They don't really make them unless they are from the factory , you would just have to paint the metal.

However , the "half plastic half body color" look is kinda cheap and dated looking. Most cars that used to have that paint style were in the early 2000's but where later changed to all body color simply because it looks much better. Your truck would look more classy all white.
 






A chrome or simply not plastic bumper would look much better than painting the white to match the plastic.
