They do look new. What paint did you use and please report back on how it holds up.

I use krylon fusion on all my plastic stuff every few years. Used it on the JKs and the old TJ I had. Find it lasts at least for a couple years before it starts to fade or anything. Nice way to bring back some life if its faded by the sun and doesn't takes a sunday afternoon or so with a few beer breaks between coats.
