Ordered these in Java Black from LR Parts. Took a whole 10 minutes to apply while killing time at my sons baseball practice. Nice and easy and better than the factory grey which as we all know sucks over time! The 2006 is looking alright!
I got mine from lrparts.net but as Ddillenger says powerfuluk also has them ... Both decent vendors from UK. Ordered and received in California with 7 days.
I did the same a few weeks back. Definitely nicer, much cleaner looking (IMO) than chrome. I got mine from http://www.powerfuluk.com/ from their ebay store.
Aututto the RRSC and the fleet had their yearly compound, polish and wax few weeks ago.. My other 2 cars are black as well. Never go through car wash! Hand wash and occasional easy wax keeps them shiny and swirl free. We have a hand wash car wash not too far which makes it easy!
07+ doesn't seem to suffer from this issue... I never saw the point in spending money to paint and overlay a those covers when it takes about 1 hour to just repair the problem without using a bandaid.
My 04 I scuffed the original finish, taped off, then painted with a similar color spray paint... did 3 coats then shot a little clear over them. They lasted as long as I had the car (years) and that one was parked outside all 100% of the time.

I could have used trim paint and made them look nice, but to be honest, I like the body colored accessories, so the covers were a perfect fit for me.
