White Smooth Locks....
look like total *** on a white car. The damn things don't cover the entire door lock so you still have a black ring around the Smooth Lock. NOT recommended. What a rip off. I threw them in the trash.
I was too disappointed in the way they looked to bother with taking a photo. Just imagine them on with a black ring around them. If I paint the lock whats the point in even having the Smooth Locks? It was my understanding that they covered the entire lock. Not just part of it.
I liked my smooth locks... I wouldnt get painted ones, I already knew that effect... The black looks fine to me, I've had a few friends tell me how nice they are as well. They make my 3d domed door handle and sail panel decals look great too !!!

Again, I am sorry you didn't like them but I wish you gave me a chance to at least try to make it right. I would have rather refunded your money instead of being called a "rip off".

I'd like to add that while I understand painting the black ring that the smoothlock won't cover won't be for everyone, it was far from difficult. In fact that hardest part for me was screwing around with finding, buying, thinning, and figuring out a way to spray the paint using my cars Purple Pearl Metallic color.
I had to buy touch up paint tubes, and a model air gun. It worked, but had I been able to walk into a retail paint outlet and get a factory matched spray can for $4, the job would have been EASILY manageable, IMO.
Again, I DO understand not wanting to have to do this painting, but the difficulty of it is very low. (and I suck at painting).

.For anyone too lazy to paint, just get black ones and pop em on. Still looks better than having the keyhole.
I thought the smooth lock would cover the entire lock as well then I realized it didn't once I got them. No big deal though some black nail polish will cover up the faded side of the lock. I think they still look great.
