Hello all, when I received my accord the plastic around my rear side markers were faded and black. I decided to color match them to the body.

Time Needed:
5-10 minutes to remove
45 minutes - 2 hours to paint
5-10 minutes to reinstall

Tools and materials:
Small Philips head screwdriver
Primer OR adhesion promoter
DupliColor Colormatch spray paint OR desired color
(Optional) Clear coat

Let's get started!

Removal:

1: Undo the small Philips screw and push in the opposite side.




2: Pull out the red part and disconnect it.




3: Undo the second hidden screw and pull the bezel out.




Painting:

1: Prime the bezel with a white base for light colors and gray for dark colors.



2: Next, spray the colormatched color.



3: Clear coat if desired.



Reassembly is opposite of removal.



You're done! :D
