probably be cheaper to see if Ford sells the 13+ pre painted and buy those. Cause a body shop will have to do alot of prep on those texture skirts to get it smooth to paint it

I think there have been some guys on the forum that have painted them, check the white Mustang thread maybe.

A body shop can do it for you pretty easily, you will have a bit of texture in the final product due to the way the trim is made but the pics I saw came out really nice.

The rocker molding on the 13+ would probably fit but the bumper trim is different I think.

I like the black. Helps break up the color a bit.

I painted mine - I think it helps the car, especially if you have rocker stripes.
