Yeah what Taint said removing those breather caps will make it easier so you don't have to worry about damaging them and yeah it is a lot more work than just using the compound but they are just options.
Ill eventually paint all that black when it starts getting bad but for now its ok. I do like the accent the gray adds but at the same time i wonder how it will look all black. Maybe pink? lol
On a side note that back to black worked on my friends intrepid, I don't know how water resistant it is but it did work for the time I was around.

Your referring to the outer plastic coverings (outer moldings) that are snapped onto the actual "pillars"
When you mentioned pillars, I think of the support member with that particular name

In any event, OEM paint, sold only at automotive paint supplies sells a black plastic paint that matches bumpers and exterior black plastic parts perfectly.

branstone-
If you read my post, it was just intended for Ghost Rider
That picture was for the name of the part only, not to order them
I think he should paint them, not buy new ones.

So, I purchased them direct. The right side is $55.00 and the left side is $60.00. To the poster who wondered why one side is more than the other, the lady I ordered from said she thinks that the left side is the side that gets hit most often in an accident so they charge more for it.
What I am going to do is replace these and my husband will paint the other ones for me and keep them in storage. Then God forbid, something happens, I'll have a set ready. Since they are no longer making Hummers, it's "possible" that the prices for parts will go up and could become scarce. Now, had these mouldings been a lot more money, I would have opted to just paint these or use the Forever Black on them.
I appreciate so much all the quick responses to my question on this forum. Wow, you guys (and gals?) are great!! Am I the only female with an H3 on here? lol
God bless all of you. I'll be posting more things, now that my vehicle is out of warranty.

Nice to "meet" you all!!
