I wanted to buy the smooth vent caps but decided to have my stockers painted for now since it was much cheaper. Mine were fading pretty bad and this was a great improvement. The body shop only charged me $50.

I'm sure it would look fine, but painting them body color would look best!

I went with Esky corners and had them painted, but I think anything body colored
is what really does the trick.

The Denali should really come from the factory, or should have, I guess, with the vents painted. I wonder if Dupli-color and 4 or 5 clearcoats would get it looking pretty good? I have black too, but its an 02.
