Here's an easier mod; for $20 you can get a vinyl strip in flat black, gloss black, etc. from Vette FX. Heat the chrome strip to make it pliable, pry the tabs holding it on and remove; install wrap reassemble strip. 10 minutes. Done. If you don't like the look or want to change it in the future. You can.
No risk of paint getting where you don't want it.

Vinyl strip
Got this vinyl strip from APEX motorsports in Carbon flash! It goes on great super forgiving. Even up close It looks like paint. It took me about 10min to install.

Has anyone used black out vinyl on the side markers? Curious if it looks good or cheap.

I've always tinted side makers really dark with window tint.. then tape off and use spray tint to get in cracks
